It is rare to find a person who is not in need of something. We are all in need. Money could quite likely be at the top of the list for most people (followed by a place to live if you happen to live in Whistler). Money can buy you just about anything, so if you had more, surely you would have everything you need? HA! Not true! Money is a very practical need – we need to pay for a place to live, food to eat, clothes, entertainment, education, transportation, etc. What actually makes life worth living you cannot buy (of course you already know this). So what does this list look like? I would say at the top is contentment. As to what makes each person content is unique to that person but it’s a culmination of everything in your life – the people, where and how you live, your chosen employment, your activities, how you think about yourself and others, and what you do that gives you a sense of value and accomplishment. The goal is to feel good at the end of the day!
Now getting back to the question of what do you need? It’s a good idea to know the difference between need and want and then also know how much is enough. This, to me, is the bigger question – how much is enough? Be aware of the skills in your wheelhouse and be realistic in everything you do, where you set yourself up for success every day.
Under practical needs, we all need good winter boots! I have been informed that the NexGrip boots are on their way and should be in store by next Monday or Tuesday. All the NexGrip styles we are carrying this year are on the website so you can have a look in advance. In the “New” department, Justine Brooks has come out with the most adorable dog paw stud earrings! Available in silver, rose gold, and yellow gold – the perfect gift for dog lovers! And lastly, the Hiley handbag from Matt & Nat has been a hot item this fall – available in black and Vineyard.
We also have new store hours this week as the days get shorter so if you plan to stop in for a visit at our Whistler village store, be sure to do so between 10am - 6pmdaily. Of course you can always save yourself a trip and browse all of our new arrivals, jewellery, handbags, footwear, housewares, gifts, sales, and more on our website!
