“Being rich is having…”

Being rich is having money; being wealthy is having time.

-Stephen Swid, executive (b. 1941)

Nowadays, with so many of us worried about the economy, and many of us trying to stick to tighter budgets during the holiday season, I thought that this quotation was appropriate.

The interesting thing though is that while there may be a limit to how much money we can make (at least in a short amount of time) we have much more control over how much time we can make – time for ourselves, our loved ones, and the important things in our lives. Ā 

It is important to remember that we do have this ability so that we do not let the circumstances that may be beyond our control take over.

I hope you enjoy this day after Thanksgiving, whether you are able to spend a lot of money in the stores today or not. Ā Find (or make) time today for the people and things that you love.
