Today is a half day at work, so I thought I'd start off the Thanksgiving holidays with this poem I have hanging by my computer at work. I don't know where I originally got it from, so I can't give the author proper credit (which will probably get me sued!). As we all go through the rat race of life, I thought this might make the holidays with family and friends a little bit sweeter. Now if only I could learn to heed my own advice!
Money will buy. . .
A bed, but not sleep
Books, but not brains
Food, but not appetite
Finery, but not beauty
A house, but not a home
Medicine, but not health
Luxuries, but not culture
Fun, but not happiness
Religion, but not faith
Acquaintances, but not friends
Never get so busy making a living that you forget to HAVE A LIFE!
