So why do I keep buying things?
I think in troubling times I often reach out in a retail sort of way to find some comfort but it never works. It is temporary at best. I always think that if I get what I want...then I'll be happy. But the truth is that for me, getting what I think I want never makes me happy. Reaching outside myself for comfort always leaves me empty. It is only through accepting exactly what is at this very moment, do I find peace.
So my holiday wish to you dear readers is that you find peace and happiness right here in the present moment - no matter what that moment holds. Things are not going to be okay. They ARE okay right now.
