Can Money Buy You Happiness?

I found this on one of Mary Kay Co.'s training websites and was so impressed!




"It can buy life insurance.  It can buy a house in a nice neighborhood where you may feel more secure raising your family.  It can buy a good night’s sleep knowing all the bills have been paid.  As tools to achieve independence, security and peace of mind, money can certainly help meet these goals.  But can money really buy happiness?  Probably not -- especially when what it buys does not bring a sense of peace and value into your life.

When you define your values, you’ll begin changing your behavior to align with your values.  Your spending habits change and your priorities fall into place.  You no longer find yourself making impulse purchases that run counter to your values and then leave you wondering, "Why don't I really feel that happy?"

Money comes and goes to keep us moving ahead, but it does not truely fulfill us!
The relationships we build with one another, with our family, and with God are what fullfills us.
