Stuff

 For me to consider:

"The bottom line is this: You can’t take your stuff with you. And chances are, when you get to the end of your life, you’re not going to wish you had more of it. Moments of connection, beauty, and generosity are the “things” worth collecting as we journey through life.

"Consider Paul’s words in 1 Timothy 6:7: 'For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.'

"Or Francis of Assisi’s words: “When you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received—only what you have given.”
~ Julia Ubbenga, "Rich in What Matters"


"In about 50 years, you’ll be gone. They’ll sell your stuff at a garage sale. Or toss it in a dump. But, your kids will still be around—even your grandkids. They won’t remember your stuff. But they’ll remember you. Pursue the things that matter 200 years from now."
~ Jared Lopez
