My boss said something incredible today; very enlightening, and totally not on purpose... and what sucks is, I can't remember what it is she said. But I remember thinking at that moment, 'wow, that was really deep.' Or atleast, it hit me deep.
If I can remember anything at all, which isnt very likely, she said something about the topic of simplicity and being happy with just getting enough. Oh yes, thats it. She mentioned something about the plant she was repotting and how she had just enough stuff to repot it, and she was thrilled.
I'm not sure how, but my mind went in like fifteen different directions with what she said and the idea behind it. Being happy just getting by. Most people arent happy with that; but I've been totally learning how to be happy with just having enough to take care of the needs and that it. Like, I am BEYOND thrilled when I have enough money to pay for car insurance, rent, my phone bill, my compassion child I sponsor, and to put gas in my car. I barely make enough to do all of this but when I see that I have just enough when I didnt think I did, I am so happy.
And it all makes me want to live a more simple life; being happy with what I have, not being over possessive over things I want, and living life on a day to day basis instead of living on a year to year, or years to years basis.
I dont know, just food for thought that I've been chewing on all day.
