What does it mean to have a good life?  Whose definitions are we living by? Is a good life simply food on the table and a roof overhead?  Or is it two houses, two kids, two cars, millions in the bank?  What does a good life mean to you?

As we move into 2025, may we take a moment to uncover what the good life is for each of us… Our first impressions of what “good” looks like comes from our families of origin.  We know what we had and we know when our parents wanted more.  Then the idea of good comes from visiting other people’s homes and seeing their versions of good.  Then we added commercials, magazines, marketing and ads… and even stronger now the advent of social media telling us all the time about the things we need and are missing out on.  Good becomes defined by everything outside of us.
