We just said goodbye to a wonderful family member who stockpiled every possession her whole life and in her last year on earth, had zero interest in any of it. So sad, not stuff, not food, not drink, not flowers, not money, not home could bring an ounce of interest or joy.

I try to wiggle and turn money into a well funded retirement nest egg yet I have no interest in retiring and the money management is annoying and absolutely unpredictable. With the best planning it will never be enough to overcome world pitfalls in next generations hands or even my hands, disappearing in a heartbeat with a market calamity.

From experience, my best days are when I surrender all to our Lord and let Him steer that day. Absolute peace and total joy fill those days and life and stuff still gets done.
