i am a simple person who enjoy life's blessing in simple ways.... but it bothers me when i notice nowadays aome people enjoy their life in luxury.... they want new things...modern things...they enjoy shopping wherein you can even enjoy in window shopping...enjoying new modern cellphone but you can even enjoy on old units of mobile phones....you can enjoy swimming even in a pool or sea near to you nor going to popular beaches that you can also have the same sunburn as well... enjoy in life's expensive way but can enjoy also in the most cheapest way... dont get people like these....they are just wasting time effort and money where in you can expend less but enjoy a lot...

I agree with you ianne. Although I myself love luxurious things. But I am not the type of person who will spend a lot just to get them. Most of them, I receive as an award or a raffle. :) We can enjoy things without having to spend so much money. Sometimes we have to look at the simplest things - even the thought of waking up each day is a joy. :) Right?

I would like the luxury stuff too. But, I am happy with the simple things in life too. Take care.

I really appreciate your great thoughts in simple things. Yes , this proves that you have understood life's technique and are enjoying in simple things Great. Some people though they are lavishly leading life are not at all happy.After all what is this life form I feel that they have not understood life or how to enjoy.And these moneyed people are also stingy in spending - but I have seen personally that they loose lot of money by paying for unnecessary things which they do not understand.I observe their spending and understand how they are getting loss. Funny No. Any how you are following the proverb "SIMPLE LIVING HIGH THINKING'. You should stand as an example for others and they also should learn from you is my prayer.

Some people enjoy life to the fullest by spending too much because they have so much of everything, while there are those who are contented of ways that they need not spend too much money.And as for me, I am enjoying life the way that I don't have to think how to fit my budget. I respect those who are enjoying in luxury for I myself dream of becoming like them. If one day I will wake up & realize that I am blessed with so much of everything then that's my turn to be exactly like those who live life in luxury... Rich people are not really wasting time & money because like us they are just enjoying their lavish lifestyle.And for them money is nothing when you have seized the day...And after all those times they spent in earning money, it's their time to relax...

I totally agree with you. Keeping life simple is definitely the way to go to be much more happier. The higher your maintenance, the less likely you are happy. I like the simple things in life like chatting with my friends, going for a drink once in a while and just chilling out, I don't enjoy going to a club and spending tons of money on it. I have a really simple mobile phone, not those smartphones. I drink water most of the time and not coke or any carbonated water in general. I buy branded goods that are rejects, cheaper and have minor problems, I just fix em myself and you couldn't even tell them apart from those perfect products in the store. The simple things in life are the things that lasts, giving infinite joy just to be alive

That's true. I guess, as these people earn more, they also get the impression that they have to spend more instead of using their money for a more useful cause.

It is according to the life style of every person who wants to enjoy fully their life. Sometimes people does enjoy their life in an expensive way and according to their taste though it is more expensive while some people enjoy their life in a less expensive manner which they can enjoy most. We can make our life more simple in things we can afford but not to the extend of enjoying our life beyond our means. It is a waste of money spending in less valuable not enjoyable things in our life.We should care for our hard earn money and wisely put it in a most enjoyable and practical way.
