TECH TIP OF THE WEEK
Words of Wisdom
When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
~ Lao Tzu
Have you ever noticed that during parties or family gatherings people tend to congregate in the kitchen, regardless of how small the space? Or, what about when you put on a movie for a group of children? They tend to crash onto the same sofa or into a pile on the floor. Consider these things the next time you feel you need a grander home. Friends and family want togetherness, oftentimes literally. So why do we always think we need more space? Is it because we want room for more stuff or for more people? Sometimes, everything we need, our whole world, is right under our roof and nothing is lacking.
With something to think about . . .
Remember to take care of yourself.
Is a bigger space really what you need, or could you simply make more space by discarding some things?
Happy Birthday!
