That old saying, "Money isn't everything" to me is so true . I have something better and any earthly riches.

Blessed Treasures!
 
I don’t have lots of money or material riches of any kind.
What I have is more than that, including peace of mind.
Now granted, peace of mind can’t pay for all those bills.
But when I think of what I’ve got, I get goose bumps and chills.
 
You see I have so many treasures that are too many to count.
And everyday those treasures all begin to mount.
Every person in my life is my treasure that’s for sure.
For my heart was broken badly and these treasures had the cure.
 
So money isn’t everything, in fact, it isn’t much.
For when you’re scared and lonely, money can’t keep in touch.
It’s your friends and family that are always by your side.
It’s them that get you through with dignity and pride.
 
So when you’re thinking money, is what you really need.
Think of this my friend, money’s only greed.
Its friends and family that you require, to help you through the day.
And you can find these blessed treasures, every time you pray.
 
Written by,
Bonnie May

Friends and family--yes, they are treasures indeed. And if you don't have any, be a friend to others and you may find hidden treasure as acquaintance develops into friendship, and friendship becomes like family. (I know what I mean)

Your "friendly" Sis,
Connie

Great to have a little of both. This is an inspiring poem to read and start my day with just a few bucks in my pocket but the bills are all paid.
