My parents were the WW2 generation, although it wasn't a saying they said, it was one we often lived by. In our modern consumer driven, "gotta have it now" world, it's a saying that almost seems quaint.
It's one I've taken to heart in growing stages over the years.
I hope you find my sharing of that growth here either useful to you, or at least entertaining.
