Life is less about an accumulation of things - more money, possessions, houses, as it is about an accumulation of memories - and shared memories at that.
It is the shared moments in time - shared with the people who matter to you - with your spouse, with your children, with your grandchildren - that is the essence of life, and that which gives life its value, and its relevance.
it is about "the remember when" - a looking back at a specific moment in time when - you had to be there to know what happened, and to appreciate the nuance of the moment.
It is all about at that specific moment, in that specific place, at that specific time - and only those people who were present will be able to speak of it, remember it, and get the substance out of it - and none of the billions of people in the world would be any the wiser.
It is that shared moment that can bring a smile to your lips, tears to your eyes, and a boundless joy and pride to your heart.
Look at your spouse - Look at your children - Look at your grandchildren.
Turn to one of them and ask - "Do You Remember When?"
Many people trade TIME for MONEY, because money is concrete, and has value now, today, but time, derives its value in the future, which is not concrete.
However time is finite.
Your life is finite.
You can always get more money, but no matter how much money you have, you cannot BUY MORE TIME.
Consequently, people should trade MONEY for TIME, and not vice versa.
People who trade money for time, tend to be happier, healthier, and be more fulfilled, perhaps because they have more time to experience shared moments with the people who matter to them - like their spouse, their children, and their grandchildren.
This winter, on this snowbird vacation, spend less time cleaning, cooking, and doing the dishes, and spend more time with those people who matter to you - making more of those shared, and treasured moments.
A Snowbird Vacation to a Full Service, 5-Star, All-Inclusive, Beachfront Resort in Punta Canada can:
spare you the chores of cleaning - they have staff to do that

On your last "escape the winter cold" vacation:
did you sweep and mop, clean and dust, make the bed, shop for groceries, decide what to cook, set the table, cook, clean the table, and wash the dishes?
did the apartment or vacation rental home that you stayed at have on the compound:
a doctor's office and a pharmacy, restaurants and bars, a coffee shop and a cinema, a casino and a discotheque, a theater and a piano bar, mini-marts and spas?
