Enjoy This, But Not Too Much

Don’t set your mind on things you don’t possess as if they were yours, but count the blessings you actually possess and think how much you would desire them if they weren’t already yours. But watch yourself, that you don’t value these things to the point of being troubled if you should lose them. —MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS

Appreciation and gratitude for what I already have are so essential to my well-being and happiness. And if I lose those things, then there is always something else to appreciate.

Holding with a lightness and ready to release it when it's time.

Having is fine. It's clinging that's trouble.
