I have seen in my short time in AA that the spiritual plane is much more fulfilling than any material goods I can have. I used to be envious of other people's stuff, and now I don't go there any more. I see that they buy more and more stuff and yet I know that it truly doesn't bring happiness or satisfaction. My spiritual journey is important to me...life saving...so I have to put that first. Obviously I have material goods that I need for me and my family to survive and to find enjoyment with, but it's all of no use unless it's in alignment with the spiritual plane.
