Day 294 - Puzzle
What puzzles me is why I have been keeping this "Shape Shape" game for so long. It's just another example of something taking up space when it could be enjoyed by someone else. I put it into the donation box today.
Quote for today: “It is preoccupation with possessions, more than anything else, that prevents us from living freely and nobly.” - Bertrand Russel
"The more you have, and the more you are occupied, the less you give. But the less you have, the more free you are." Mother Teresa

Wise words from Randy Alcorn concerning Possessions:
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you want.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the less you’re satisfied.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more people will come after it.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you realize it does you no good.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you have to worry about.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you can hurt yourself by holding on to it.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you have to lose.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you’ll leave behind.
