Happiness and Contentment

"I have more than enough to be happy, you probably do too. Expectations that are not met bring unhappiness, so I am careful which expectations I set and which I accept from others. I expect happiness to come from myself because that's where it is determined, in my own mind. Giving up things frees my mind to think about all that is glorious outside my window, that's the pay-off." The Comedy Bailout Blog

Its crazy how ingrained materialism is in your culture. I have gotten rid of truck loads of JUNK, my wife calls it stuff, in the last two years and we still have junk, stuff, filling the closets.
