For me, I don't have much. I mean, I have a house and a car -- for that I am grateful. I'm much luckier than a lot of people. But that doesn't even mean alot to me. What I have wanted the most is peace of mind.
And I found it. I had to become a drunk to do it tho. LOL When I got sober, I joined AA, and I was agnostic at the time. Trouble is, in AA they talk about a "higher power" alot -- and I didn't have one, so I faked it til i made it. And I MADE IT. Finally I came to believe, thru a spiritual awakening, which scared the living daylights out of me!!  But once I came to know my Higher Power (whom I choose to call God) I found the kind of peace of mind that many would envy. That's all I ever wanted. And today, i feel like thats all I need, even if I lost everything.
