Chasing the dream is the American way. Your reach should always exceed your grasp. You offer some good commentary on that. Take the time to grab a few dreams that are within your reach. And consider what you have. Many of the things that I thought I had to have 20 years ago aren't important at all to me anymore.
How very true - great point!
I did go buy some nice towels by the way. A luxury to enjoy every day.
I might dream of having a second home in some really nice place, but the fact of it is it's all I can do to keep up with this one! That's a reasonable goal and it doesn't take millions of dollars. ;-)
