Are you rich or poor?

Received this from a friend and I must share it here...

Contentment is natural wealth,

luxury is artificial poverty.


- Socrates BC 469-399, Greek Philosopher of Athens

Life-Changing Thoughts:

Contentment is knowing how to enjoy what you have,
and to lose all desire for things beyond your reach.

It is not the fulfillment of what you want,
but the realization of how much you already have.

Being content gives a sense of being rich and complete,
whereas, being discontent, you feel the reverse and may
actually make you even poorer in many ways.

A Weekend well-spent brings a week of content.
Have a great weekend!
