If you can imagine this, I have a joke with some friends based on this line from Whatever happened to Baby Jane? "But you are Blanche, you are in that chair!"

Does it mean my life is over and I shouldn't strive to do more until the day I die? I think not. You might as well kill me now if that is the case. I figured out that being satisfied means "not striving too much" for stuff. You know what I mean. Stuff. I like gadgets, I like to travel, I like, I like, I want... The striving should be to serve others, not obtain more stuff. I am so blessed. How about you? Are you satisfied? Are you content?
Lord, all I need is you. Please help me to realize this when I feel I am missing something in my life.

Samsung Announcement
Samsung had their first Fall announcement session yesterday. They announced their new smart watch called the Galaxy Gear smart watch.
The watch can link to a Galaxy smart phone to make calls, 1.9 megapixel camera and other functions. It can also track your physical activity and transfer it to your phone or tablet or computer. It comes in several colors and costs $299. I will not be buying one...
Samsung also announced their Galaxy Note III. As the article says "it is huge and comes with a pen!" ha!
