Are you Bound to Material Things?
Posted by: | CommentsAre you the type of person that measures themselves with how many material possessions you have?
If you are, you should be doing the opposite. You should be judging yourself with the blessings that have occurred in your life. Instead of feeling blessed about having a nice house, big car, and a vacation home, you should be happy about having a warm home, with a great family, and wonderful friends. I know having nice things makes you feel like you have accomplished something and makes you feel a sense of power, but it isn’t what life is all about. Life has an abundance of opportunities that do not require a dollar amount, and the best part is there is no sales tax.
If not having nice things brings you down and makes you feel insignificant to others, then you are not realizing how blessed you really are. Instead of looking around and judging yourself with how much you own, judge yourself on the things that required no purchase. Sometimes we take the little things that are present in our lives to lightly and do not realize just how lucky we are to have them. I’ve met poor men that feel like the most blessed and luckiest person in the world, not because of how much money they had, but because they have an amazing family. I’ve met rich people that feel incomplete and empty because their whole life they have been working so hard to be successful, they lost sight of what is really important.
So if recently you have been measuring your success with how much money you make and how many material possessions you have, take a step back and realize that if you lost all those things who would still be there for you?
Your Family.
What solutions do you need for your family?
