13

A few days ago I was thinking about this. Why is it that whatever we have we always want more? For my birthday I got several nice new things that I wanted. Some people around the world don't even know how they are going to get their next meal. Why are we so greedy? Take this for example: When you don't have a tv you want one. Once you have a tv you want cable. Then after you get cable you want a new HD tv. And it just keeps going on forever. But still when we have all these things we rarely find the time to help others. You don't go out with your friends on the weekends and help serve lunch at the homeless shelter or go paint houses for people who are getting their first house with help. Why are we so self centered? What do you think? Could you help more?

That, is a very good question. I think i should probably help more.

yes, true. it's human nature- the more you have, the more you want. from the Ethics of the Fathers: "Who is rich? He who is happy with his portion." very true. no matter how wealthy you are, you will always view yourself as poor, because there will always be something else you want. you can never be satisfied. unless, of course, you learn to be happy with what you have. a satisfied person is the richest of all, because he knows that he has everything he could possibly need, and a whole lot more.

it is hard to do more. and about english muffins, they are round and are delicious. it's a sort of breakfast food and they are bread products. my next post will be all about them. lol.
