I read this article today, and was encouraged by it and its reflection of the new growing mentality of Americans. Having recently been faced with our own financial crisis of sorts, I have started to really look at how there's joy and happiness, and maybe even MORE of it, to be found when we have less. We're brought back to the basics of life, reminded of what truly matters in this life ... enough to eat, a roof over my head, my husband, my family, my coming baby, my church. I am reminded that I am rich, despite my financial status. Click on the link below and read the article ... its encouraging, no matter your current financial situation.

Good article. Thanks. This last year I've learned a lot and I need to remind myself of my priorities.
Chris made an interesting and insightful observation the other day. "Children don't know when you're poor, but they do know when you're rich and it's not a good thing...."
