Keeping up with the Jones’

September 8, 2008

It seems that we all want bigger and greater things. Bigger houses, bigger television sets, and greater powers, greater wealth, and greater influence over others. Although the trend is for bigger and greater things we have not thought things through properly. For example we buy bigger sofas yet have difficulties squeezing them through the front door. We enjoy super-size meals yet our stomachs are having difficulties digesting. It seems our appetite for bigger and greater are like mirages in a dissatisfied, miserable desert world. There is more to life than size and amounts. There is hope, there is love, and faith!
