“The test of an enjoyment is the remembrance which it leaves behind”

I recently read another blog about accomplishments we have and are proud of and how there is no trophy for these accomplishments. Ive come to realize that many of the things we strive to have in life, once achieved are not that exciting to anyone else but yourself. I also find that so many people are out there trying to impress and promoting their accomplishments on the proverbial bucket list by which we all compare one another. When i bought my car, i originally wanted a white one but settle for a silver one, i cared for about an hour that it wasnt white. My parents wanted me to be super excited about this car, i was happy but that's about as far as it went (im not one to jump up and down). All it means is now i can go places and not have to take the bus, good for me. Having a fun life is not defined by the books in your bookshelf, the groceries in your cart or the fact that you like to go to yoga.
Life is not a novelty item.
