Remember how little is needed to live a happy life.

"Remember how little is needed to live a happy life" - Marcus Aurelius

I live such a blessed life.

 

From time to time, I reflect on how wonderful my life is, how utterly content I am, and I cannot help but radiate from the depths of my soul.

 

I have everything that I need. 

 

I have good quality relationships. 

 

I have my health.

 

I have no real worries.

 

I am spiritually in-tune. 

 

I live each moment by my values and beliefs.

 

I have complete control.

 

There is nothing more I can ask in this life.

 

Sure, I still have my vices.

 

There are things which I like, I want.

 

I would love an exotic sports car, a luxury mansion, a private jet.

 

But I certainly don't need them.

 

Nor do these things dictate my life and actions.

 

It's important to take a step back and look at the bigger picture.

 

See life for what it really is, in the grand scheme of things.

 

How beautiful and magical life is.

 

And not take anything you have for granted.

 

Strive to live, live to strive.
