Simply Living

Sometimes we make life more complicated than it needs to be.

Unless we have inherited money to live on, we have to do something that will pay us well enough to pay for our necessary costs of living.

Beyond that, what would would it take to really make you happy?

If you decide you need to have the newest car, the biggest TV or lots of jewelry and designer clothes, then you have to work more hours or get other jobs in order to afford those things.

If what makes you happy is to spend time with family and friends sharing home cooked meals, telling stories, making music, going for walks, tending a garden, or other simple pleasures, that does not cost much.

If you decide you want to create your own business that requires more energy than just logging in and working at someone else's business.

All of these are choices we make, and these affect our happiness.

If we do the things we need to do and the things we like to do, our choices are simple.
