Time And Support

Content And Happy

“You are rich,

when you are content and happy

with what (and who) you have.”

Happiness does not rely

on material wealth.

It is about appreciating

what we do have

and

being content with it.

We must remember

that there are always others

who are ‘less well off’ than us.

A simple pleasure like a cup of coffee after a busy morning,

or

seeing your mother smile and hug you,

these ‘things’ are priceless!

Whilst money does

give up a certain amount of security,

it is very often a listening ear

which we need and cherish.

When we ‘think’ this way,

we are cultivating a community

of love and support.

This proves that ‘true wealth’

comes from generosity

and

giving your time and support.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
