AdrienneSmith  A few years ago I might have questioned you but I can see that 50 is within reach.
I do what I can to help the kids, but some things can’t be taught they have to be experienced.
I am doing my best to try to minimize the number of things I need. I think it makes for a much happier life. Things never replace relationships.

Happy belated birthday Jack! Hope you enjoyed it and watch out, 50 will be creeping up soon too! Trust me on that one my friend.
Glad you had that talk with your kids and I hope they came to understand the difference a little better. Probably once you become an adult and actually are able to make some choices then this might be a little clearer to them at that time.Â
I still live in a one bedroom condo and have for the past 24 years. I love it actually but I also don’t have my own family so it fits me perfectly. I was also the person that always went to visit people because they had the family so it was less expensive for me then them although I seem to be the only one traveling. Anyway, I don’t “need” a lot in life. I’m perfectly happy with the way things are because they’re just things to me. I think the older we get the more a lot of people realize that they’re just things and can never take the place of people and our relationships.
Enjoyed the podcast, great share.
