But the farmer maintained an equanimity throughout with the response "Who knows!". I must try and find that story to share at this blog as it rather entertaining! Thanks for your comment Chris. We all need reminders. In fact, one of the reasons I blog is to remind myself :-) Blessings!

This really applies to my life right now too. Learning to accept what comes my way and being grateful and happy for everything that happens despite how it may appear is something we need to try to practice on a regular basis. I really appreciate this post, it was short, simple, to the point, and a very strong and important message. The quote "Is it not easier to be happy when your wants are few?" Was also really good. I've never come across it before and it makes a great addition to my collection :) Thanks so much. Keep up the good work! Take Care, Chris This was an excellent post!
