that is a wonderful way to live. I have never been one to want for things I can't have, and I think that is why I am content with what I have. My husband thinks when I say oh that is pretty that he needs to get it for me. I say no, just cause I think it is nice doesn't mean I want it. We were raised to have what we needed, and some of what we wanted, and to me that is the good life. We never went hungry, or cold in the winter. What more could you ask for. We had a mom and dad that loved us and was always there for us. I am glad I was raised as I was.
sounds good to me.
