Dear Comforteaglesteve,
You have done well providing and caring for your family. You should be proud of yourself. You have already found that money doesn’t buy happiness, and you have taught this to your children. Don’t be hard on yourself for wanting more. As V.J said, this is the nature of being human and we have to be careful of our attachments. I think if you are going to put your energy and love into something, put it into your kids. My dad made a lot of money, but he wasn’t home much and he didn’t give me the love I needed. He left me a lot of money, but I still would have rather had him and his love. It is just something to think about. It sounds like you are doing o.k, so enjoy your days with your family.
Rachel
