This is a little longer post, but there’s a message in it that I hope you enjoy.

We seem to live in a world of instant gratification, combined with a constant stream of suggestion and influence. From Amazon to Instagram to InstaCart – we see image after product after lists of “10 Ways To A Better You…” An endless stream of THIS WILL MAKE YOU HAPPY.
