If you want to feel rich, just count the things you have that money can't buy.
--Ancient Proverb
***
Why is it we place so much value on the things that money can buy and not on the really important things in life; the things that money can’t buy?
Money can buy you a house, but can’t buy you a home.
Money can buy you an acquaintance, but can’t buy you a true friend.
Money can buy you style, but can't buy you character.
Money can buy you a good time, but can’t buy you peace of mind.
Money can buy you possessions, but can’t buy you respect.
Money can buy you “the best seat in the house,” but it can’t buy you a place in heaven.
Zig Ziglar said, ”You can get everything money will buy without a lick of character, but you can't get any of the things money won't buy without character.”
This year make it a resolution to spend more time acquiring all the things that money can’t buy. It is far better to be rich in character, than rich in the pocketbook!

It's your life: Live it, Love it & Celebrate it!
