It's the old adage: More is never enough. I, frankly, like being comfortable - who doesn't to some extent? - and in fact I wish I was a whole lot comfortable than I am, though I know there are millions of people who would willingly trade places with me.

Being able to laugh at the world's absurdities goes a long too. : )J.S.

You understand how much you have yet you still find yourself wanting more. It definitely makes me uncomfortable but apparently not enough to make me change. And that is what makes it so hard to handle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
