Sarah's CircleFriends are blessings that sustain our journeys. |
On Monday our group decided on a topic, and then on Tuesday, I listened to a podcast that addressed that very issue - that whatever we have, we tend to get used to it. And so, the pleasure these things provide, decreases over time. The solution to this seems to be to deprive ourselves temporarily of the things that are part of our daily lives, so that they once again become pleasurable. I’m not sure that I’m ready to give up my coffee for weeks (or even days) just so that it will taste even better at a later time! And I don’t think it was referring to living in a tent so that you appreciate your house. But, it did make me think about the people and experiences that I now enjoy even more because of living this sheltered life. I hope and pray that these things do not again become so commonplace in my life that I loose this heightened sense of happiness and joy. --Jeanette
