What makes us want more? If we have all that we need what makes us want more? I think it is very easy to get caught up in wanting more. Most of us, I believe, would be happy with what we have if everybody was at our same level. Our discontentment comes when we start comparing ourselves with others. We look at what other people have that we don’t and then it hits us, ”I want that.” We continue to think about that thing and before we know it we make it out to be something that we need. Been there done that. It is a daily struggle for all of us. It is also a black hole for us if we let ourselves get caught up in it. If we continue to try to keep up with the Jones we will never be content. There will always be someone who has something more than us. If we look at all the good things we already have and can be thankful for those then we will be much happier and joyful in our everyday life.
Thanks for joining me.
