Possessing much won't necessarily make one satisfied;

Possessing little won't necessarily make one want.

- Venerable Shengyen

This came to me via email. It’s very true and a wonderful starting point for meditation. I wish everyone could see this point, they would be much happier. I have issues with this. I sometimes get bad cases of the “got to have its.” I am not as bad as I used to be, but unfortunately I am still paying for my past and will be for many years to come.
