I have come to realize most of my dissatisfaction in life comes from focusing on what I don’t have rather than enjoying the blessings that are already in my life. I find reminding myself that I have everything that I need and many of the things that I want always lifts my mood and brings contentment. I am trying to get over my urge to want more and more and more and to finally learn happiness and contentment cannot be bought. 

 the epiphany: 
less is more. 
for more or less.
