love.this.quote....

"Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want."

~Margaret Young~

    that's so true! and living that way makes it much easier to wrap your head around happiness even if you're ridiculously poor. you don't have to wait for a great paying job & paid off debt to start living life happily. we can all embrace that which thrills our soul right here, right now. thanks for that reminder!
