Searching for something more?

As we contemplate the "reason" for everything that comes our way, take the time to consider WHAT you are searching for.  Happiness?   Money?   God?    Spouse?

Be specific in your question or you may find yourself spinning the wheels of your mind and never gaining satisfaction with all you acquire in your life.

Examples:
If it's Happiness, be sure to identify a source of that happiness before launching the search.
If it's Money, contemplate the number that will solve the woe, or all the riches in the world will not fill your need.
If it's God you seek, keep searching and never give up.   He will reveal things at the most perfect time.
If it's a Spouse, list the traits of the character that will keep you committed through sickness and worry.

Remember to also prioritize.  In my case and with hindsight on my side, if I had sought God first, the spouse and happiness would have come much sooner.   Money?  Well, there's never enough is there?  So for me, GSH is the key.

Love your life, it's yours.
