Things do bring gratification, but not long-lasting happiness…

So…..we keep buying more things to keep feeling good.  Too many of us fill our lives with things to ease unresolved pain and issues.  As we continue to go out there, go into debt, and buy ourselves the latest electronic gadget, we are still left unfulfilled and discontented.  We buy to feel good.  We buy because we deserve it.  We buy because we are depressed.  But in the long run, each item ends up in the hands of family or a professional to sell it or get rid of it.

 

During this holiday season, consider this:

 

~~ Dress the less fortunate by going through your clothing, shoes, etc.  Do the same for the food in your pantry and donate to your local food shelf.

 

A cluttered house is often reflective of a cluttered life.  Do yourself and your family a favor and clear out while you can.  Help others in the process.  The end result if a long-lasting and satisfied feeling.
