I would rather be able to appreciate things I cannot have than to have things I am not able to appreciate.
(Elbert Hubbard, 19th-20th century American writer, artist, philosopher)
A noble thought but terribly difficult to practice. Americans seem never to be satisfied and are always wanting more. But happiness can be found in less rather than more.
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have.
(Hebrews 13:5)
