The Things that Matter Most

Earlier in my life I thought the things that mattered were the things that you could see, like your car, your house, your wealth, your property, your office. But as I’ve grown older I’ve become convinced that the things that matter most are the things that you can’t see β€” the love you share with others, your inner purpose, your comfort with who you are.
—Jimmy Carter

Amen to that!

    This is a wonderful comment from the Late President Jimmy Carter. I think so many of us fall into this category at some point in our lives. But….it is so much better to be happy with your own Blessings from God…..not the Blessings of others. Thanks for this post.
