Quote for today-- At first glance this sounds like the same thing, take a closer look, it's not. If you are completely fulfilled by spending time with your friends and family because you really want to be with them then you truly want what you have. On the flip side, if you drive the nicest car and have a huge house, and have worked hard to get those things, then you have been successful at having what you want. When you have what you want eventually the feeling of satisfaction wears off. Once you get what you want the old want are replaced by new wants and the cycle continues. True happiness remains at bay. Look around you, happiness may be closer than you think. It may just be a matter of changing what you value. LOve and Light

It will ground you and help you to put everything else back into perspective. Love and Light
