Tsk tsk, firstdown, we know what you're going to turn this into.
Seriously though, the American Dream is just being happy with your life. I have too many friends and family constantly overwhelming themselves with being richer, with being in a huge house, with moving to that next location. It's just sad to me. My wife might even be one of those people and I try to keep her grounded.
Maybe I'm being naive, but I feel like I'm living MY American Dream. I'm married to my high school sweetheart, I own a home that I love, I work in a job I get up and am excited to go to every day (almost
). Would I love more money? Sure. Do I wish there was more to do in this little town? Sure. Do I wish everything was 100% perfect in my life? Of course.
But I have better things to do than to think about what I could change/do to achieve that 100%.
