A few weeks ago I told you about my Pinterest "problem"
here. After my week without Pinterest I learned:
1. I had more free time.
2. I was more content with the state of our house.
3. Alex enjoyed using the iPad a lot more often!
When my Pinterest free week was over, I began using again (that sounds like I'm an addict). But, I quickly learned that the problem wasn't Pinterst, it was my heart. I was allowing myself to sit and gawk, lust and covet over seemingly unimportant things and think it was acceptable (obviously it's not).
I'm not perfect and I still get on Pinterest. But, I limit my time and know my boundries. There is a point when something becomes a problem and you need to begin searching for a soulution. Alex and I prayed about the situation and I'm consciously try to spend less time gawking.

learned whatever situation I am in to be content.
In light of the subject, I found this ecard and thought it was amusing and fitting:
