Have you ever felt the wind? I mean, really felt it? Sure it blows across your skin and you feel your hair move, but beyond that. There's a majesty to it. It's exquisite. It's powerful. It's untamed, almost feral. It can cool you on a hot day or throw you through a tree in a storm. It moves mountains.

I know it sounds silly, but we tend to get lost in the lesser things. Make a buck. Buy a car. Earn, spend, save. There is more to life than stuff. I'm not saying that stuff isn't cool, or anything; but stuff only takes you so far. You gotta have it, but it cannot consume you. If it does, you are only a sum of your things. Not that that doesn't count for something, it just doesn't count for all.

I felt the wind tonight and just happened to think about it. It felt nice. It reminded me of what really matters. I nice cool breeze on a pleasant evening. Next time you accidentally run into one, give pause and enjoy.

Of course, stuff does not include Star Wars Toys! Those are always necessary.

Here is what I initially came up with as I was walking. I kinda like it better than the verbose version above.
