I just ran across this little tidbit and thought I’d share it with you:
“If you want to feel rich, just count the things you have that money can’t buy.”

Still counting…. Life is great!
I think most of us never appreciate what we have enough. We like to think that the grass is greener on the other side and end up complaining way too often.
Comment by MoneyNing — Oct 25th 2007 @ 6:50 pmI heard this old song on the radio today that went something along the lines of “There are free things in life, but I can’t choose them, so I wish you’d give me more money, give me more money…” Something like that. The way I understand that for myself is that we should appreciate things in life that have no monetary value, but at the same time, it s not necessary to get convince yourself that everything is good because you’ve got friends, health, etc. My point is that you can always make it better – better for you, your family, your friends, etc. And, as capitalistic as it sounds, money often is the answer to many questions.
