There is always something better

Better is a word that was a work in progress for me.  Sometimes, I thought I really had something good, then I found out that there was something better.  That was the story of my life until I met a friend who truly told me about better.  She told me about settling for what I saw instead of waiting for something to come into my life that really was better.  Better things are usually things that you have to wait for.  It is the part of your life where you begin to trade quantity for quality.  You may be able to go to Payless and buy five pair of shoes for the same price that it may take to buy one good quality pair of shoes.   The difference is that your Payless shoe will be gone by the next turn of the season and your quality shoes will be in your closet when you die.  Sometimes it is just better to wait for something that is better.
