Simple is Better

What am I thankful for? So many things come to mind. The good thing is that I usually wake in the morning and thank God for them. I don't wait until this day comes. I have come to realize that we need to rejoice in what we have every day.
My life has done some amazing transforming lately. I have come to realize what is important and what is just stuff. I just don't need the stuff anymore. In shopping today with Joe. So many people out there trying to get the deal. The stuff that they or their kids have to have. There was a sense of peace that if I got a item that I wanted- good, if not no big deal. My biggest want was shampoo for 69cents. Save thirty cents. Do you have any idea how much shampoo a house of seven can go thru?
A simpler life is what I want. My needs are met daily by hugs and kisses and I love you's. Life is good. Knowing that even BETTER!
