  I think this is wise. I've found a new appreciation for life by simply being grateful for what I've got. We're conditioned to strive for the next thing, believing that it'll make us happy. Inevitably the novelty of it fades and we set our sights on the next thing. That's living life by the "many breaths" school of thought. Alternatively, one can be amazed and delighted by being thankful for what they have already. I think the analogy maps pretty well onto that saying. Where did you hear it?
