Quote from Epicurus:
"Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for."
There are two parts of this that I like ... "what I hoped for" ... and "do not spoil".
I worked all my life to retire early, studying the forums on earlyretirement.org. So I what I have now is what I hoped for, for at least the second part of my adult life ... with the first part being innocent bliss of youth and the third part living the dream, retirement!
So this IS what I hoped for and GOT!
There is no reason to spoil what I currently have as many people would be desperate to achieve what I have.
I am so fortunate and grateful for what I have.
