A wonderful poem! Happiness isn't getting everything you want (all the stuff) it is being content with what you have. Thank you for your visits to my poetry.

I loved the title, and even more I enjoyed the content. Then there is of course the "stuff" that inhabits our heads. One of my favourite sayings is that "I know stuff". Most of it as useless as the stuff that clogs up my shed.

We are in the process of downsizing and I wonder where all this stuff came from and even more so where to put it all. Several trips to the thrift stores and habitat for humanity helped some. Thanks for your remarks, I appreciate that.
