It’s not what we can get from our jobs – money, prestige, vacation time, house, car, respect.
It’s not what we can get from our relationships – sense of community, friendship, sex, love.
It’s not what we can get from our vacation – serenity, relaxation, rest, intoxication, service.
It’s not what we can get from where we live – options, accessibility, reputation, space.
It’s not what we can get from our belongings – temporary happiness, convenience, status, usefulness.
It’s not what any of these things can get us.
It’s what all of these things help us become.
