now on to the post...
if you're female, or really just plain human, you probably deal with want.
like for instance,
i have been preoccupied by this tree. look at all its beauty.
oh and this mobile. seriously, the cutest one i've ever seen.
oh and this mobile. seriously, the cutest one i've ever seen.
but then i'm reminded that things are things. the tree... sage wouldn't even notice it for months upon months. i could just show her the real deal outside. and the mobile... its not like it will put her back to sleep when she wakes up in the middle of the night.
i think about how often i clinch on to things. things i want, things i wish i had, things i desire, nothing that i need (or could afford!). blah, blah, blah. they're all meaningless. are you like me? do you need to be reminded of this every. single. day? i certainly do. let's face it. we live in america. the land of possessions. but, my treasure is in heaven - i need to have this plastered to my forehead and look in the mirror frequently.
how about you?!?

Yes, I think we all struggle with these things!
oh yes it is a constant battle...
I do think this is a constant battle to all of us.
I completely agree... It's a battle for us all. We just need to remember...They are meaningless
Yep, you're not alone. It truly is a constant battle.
Everyday battle for me as well!!! AND it always seems like I want more the harder we try to save;)
Your baby girl will sleep just as well in a room with out the tree and all,it is cute.
Things aren't what is important in life and we should consider what are needs vs.wants are.
Absolutely have a problem with it...but I'm learning more and more as I get older to be content with what I do have and be excited for the blessings around the corner. It's just one of those painful things...the flesh is so weak!
***sidenote*** the tree is way cute!!!! so is the mobile, just sayin' ;0)
