Sheri Moskowitz Noga

As our economy struggles to recover and many people learn to live with less, we are offered an opportunity to develop a more normal range of wants and a deeper appreciation of what we have. The insanity of excess has caused many adults to feel unfulfilled as they get caught up in the cycle of working to buy things they don't need, possessions that will not bring true happiness and satisfaction. Many people have bought into the lie that more is better and are raising their children with that same empty notion.

...in teaching your child to be grateful and responsible, you will equip them with the tools to create a meaningful life. It is through our sense of accomplishment and connection with others that our eyes are opened to all the world has to offer. Whether getting a paycheck at the end of a hard week's work, walking through a forest, or sharing a meal with a friend, it is by bring present to ones self and another that life take on meaning.
