Ilyse and the Art of Enough

Ilyse loved a good sale — the thrill, the countdown clock, the sparkle of a deal too good to miss. Her closet was lined with “finds” she once swore she needed: glittered sweaters, half-priced heels, and three versions of the same candle because they were buy two, get one free. She called it smart shopping. But one evening, while picking tomorrow’s outfit, she noticed something strange: the more she had, the emptier she felt. Holding a velvet dress she’d never worn, a thought struck — every purchase had been a small wish: "This one will be different. Maybe this will make me feel enough.” But that never happened. So Ilyse tried something new — she slowed down. Before buying, she paused to notice what she already had: her health, her laugh, her favorite mug, a roof, a sunrise. And somewhere between gratitude and stillness, she felt full for the first time in years. 🌸 Reflection Ilyse teaches us that “enough” isn’t a number — it’s a feeling. Scarcity says, there won’t be more. Gratitude whispers, there already is. Buy from peace, not panic. Buy because it delights you, not because it distracts you.
