By desiring little, a poor man makes himself rich
Democritus
This is such a simple concept yet so empowering. In today’s world we are told incessantly by the media and marketing that we need or want a lot.
If we can break away from this. Look at what we truly need, or desire, we too can become rich.
Through desiring little we can satiate or satisfy our needs so much more easily.
Leading to a happier outlook on life. Content with what we have.
Children a great examples of this. The way they can find enjoyment through the simplest of objects. Where a pine cone can become a doll, stones become warriors, sticks and mud shaped into a house or fort or castle.
