Historic Ehlers General Store in Cornocopia, WI apparently has used this slogan since it's inception sometime around 1915 - "If we don't have it, you don't need it!" That really gave me pause for thought.
I am troubled by the incredible loss of life and destruction in Haiti. While I watch little television, I must admit that the continued news coverage is pretty captivating. It is important that we know what's happening and hopefully it awakens us to reach out and help through prayer, monetary gifts and more.
For the most part, we have more than we need and there are few retailers that won't go out of their way to get us what we do need and what we think we need or ought to have. Welcome to the world of consuming.
So how does this relate to real estate? Can't say that I really know other than I personally have more than I need and perhaps you do as well. Real estate aside maybe more than anything the slogan "if we don't have it, you don't need it" will give you cause to think about what is really important.
Please know that I am painfully aware many people are dealing with difficult issues, but I hope you will give thanks for all that you possess and be compelled to give some of it away this week.
Life is a Gift...Live It!
