Happiness

“Happiness isn’t about getting what you want all the time. It’s about loving what you have and being grateful for it.”

When I am most grateful for what I have, I don’t have the same deep need for more. When a friend of mine was on hospice and I finally chose to be grateful for the time we had together, I was better able to stop mourning the loss of time I would not have. Sometimes I feel like I always want MORE. More time, more value, more purpose. Instead, I need to appreciate what I have- in work and in personal life.
