In the thoughts of life That have no meaning. I wander amongst Those that have become lost. Who is to conspire against me When I'm but a poor old fool? There is no money to be had, Nor possessions to acquire. Yet in my simplicity I'm rich To those around me. They see I'm content And are jealous my worries are few.

You are a man both admired and loved, dear George - let alone envied! Would we all treasure that which you have found: the riches in simplicity and the joy of inner contentment. As always, spot on. Kate xx

Be happy you have nothing to leave to anyone except your good humor and sense of self, for being rich materially is very hard to be, though I will never have that problem, I still know of it through another person who recently passed and left her relatives that which they did not want...-e-

It's too bad for those who are jealous. You are very rich indeed because you are content. There is nothing more precious than that.

Love ya!
