Enough is Enough.

What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

To me, after members of my family having been diagnosed with serious illnesses, having it all means being healthy, having enough to live comfortably and having a loving family.

Just recently with no warning my son was diagnosed with throat cancer. He has undergone 7 weeks severe treatment. How would all the money in the world have compensated for watching my son suffer?

Thankfully he’s on the road to recovery and will hopefully get the all clear in July but nothing in this world is certain.

I don’t think we can ever have it all. Just look around at those who are millionaires and billionaires. They look miserable, don’t have stable relationships and have two or three wives. Obviously they don’t have everything. Also how can you spend all that money? They could make their lives better by donating to the poor and hungry in the world but they are always striving for more money and the power that goes with it.

Having it all means many different things to many different people but I’ll settle for what I have, a loving family and enough to live comfortably. This enables dealing with what life throws at us. We almost have it all.
