Having Enough

"It would have been enough had God just met our needs, but see how much more was received." Pesach Dayenu prayer of Judaism

Knowing we have enough is important psychologically.  I have a dear friend, who is probably well off by world standards, but what is remarkable about her is that she knows she has enough money.  I have heard both Oprah and J. K. Rowling say that knowing they had enough money was a long, long journey for them -- and consider how much money they have!!   So, it is not so much about how much money one actually has (as long as we have enough money to meet our basic needs), but KNOWING that we have enough.  Knowing we have enough of anything:  money, health, fun, freedom, loving relationships helps us to relax and enjoy what we have.  It gives us the security that we humans seem to long for.  As we look around our world, don't we have enough?
