Believe it or not, there are people in the world who have significantly less “stuff” than we do. They don’t have an iPod, they don’t have a car, and they don’t have a pair of Crocs…

yet they are happy.

There is mud on their shoes. Their shower water is cold. Their “wardrobe” consists of 2 shirts and a pair of shorts. But it’s ok - all is good!

I’ve found that a lot of my “happiness” comes from my “stuff.” I like stuff. I like to have a lot of stuff. I like gadgets, gizmos, and doohickies. When I don’t have my stuff, I tend to be cranky.

I’d love to get to a place where I can be joyful regardless of circumstance.

PS - I turn 29 today. There’s not a whole lot of joy to be found in that :-/
