Deep stuff. I was reading Annie's blog about things that cause life style changes.
That cause me to think about a saying that I like. It is Not my saying. It goes something like this.
"Don't fret about things that you don't have, but rejoice about the things you do have.

You know all them there emails we all get that ask us to pray, warn us, do you believe, miracles,
save this and that, you know what I mean.
Well I got that one of them the other day that I thought reinforced that saying.

I know this is a little bit out is center field, but I am very happy with what I have, In fact I have too much to keep up with.

Now we all know most stats are made up, but still it has some merit. This is part of the email,
It is talking about blessings.

******************************************************************
'If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy '

'And if you get this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity.'

'If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm, you're unique to all those in doubt and despair.'

When I started the last ten of my working years, I paid off the last car I ever bought on time. I then set in to pay off my home before I reached retirement age. Me and my fellow workers talked about how we would have to down scale our life after we no longer worked. So I plan to lower my life style. Well I was debt free five years before I quit work. I have been very lucky so for.
I still have a good life and do happy stuff and don't have to want for anything. Life is good.
