So by all means, be grateful. I hope your holiday is filled with love, joy and lots of great food. Please take time to count your blessings and be thankful for all the wonderful people and things that are a part of your life. Everyone has a slightly different idea of what constitutes wealth. Some people consider themselves wealthy if they have a roof over their heads and food to eat.
Many people have a more idealistic notion of wealth, one that involves lots of money and property.
One thing that I've learned is, while it is good to strive for a better quality of life, more money and more things do not necessarily provide more happiness. We should be thankful for, and enjoy, what we already have. Then we can decide what else we want or need in our lives. Each of us has a different set of interests and talents which we can use to create wealth. Some of us like to read, others to write, others to talk, others to play or work hard.
