There's No Harm In "Treating Ourselves"

 There’s No Harm In “Treating Ourselves”

“You might no have the things you want, but if you check carefully you got all you need”

What is a want?

What is a need?

A ‘want’ is something that we desire or would like.

A ‘need’ is something that we cannot live without.

For example, we need to eat and drink because our ‘physical’ bodies need these things.

“But I’ve only got fruit in the fridge and I’d much rather have a burger”.

Can you see the difference?

I know that you can.

The difficulty comes when we look around society and see what society ‘expects’ us to have, but do not necessarily need.

New and exciting ‘items’ are constantly coming out, which all look so ‘Important’ to have, but do we really “need” them?

A phone is a necessity in Life today, but do I really need the latest ‘all singing and all dancing’ one? 

These latest technological items cost money and are often expensive, and we could put ourselves into debt trying to ‘have them’, which will only cause us to worry and stress.

It makes more sense to be Happy with what we have and save the money.

Look around your home and just check that you have everything that you need.

Even make a list and check it off as you go.

You’ll probably be surprised at what you do actually have.

And here is where Appreciation comes into play.

However, there is no harm in “treating” ourselves, now and then.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
