Fisher of Men Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 It all depends on how you look at being rich!! We had a pastor come to our church last spring. He had been overseas on a mission trip to Africa for several months. One night, he was asking some of the local tribal kids what they would wish for if they had only one wish. The first little girl stepped up to him and said, "A pencil." Moral of the story. . . BE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU GOT, YOU DON'T HAVE IT SO BAD AFTERALL!! Quote
Super User Redlinerobert Posted August 21, 2008 Super User Posted August 21, 2008 Being rich does not mean having the most. It's when you need the least. Quote
Uncle Leo Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Being rich does not mean having the most. It's when you need the least. Well Put! Quote
Super User flechero Posted August 21, 2008 Super User Posted August 21, 2008 Wonderful wife of 22 years 6 marvelous sons & daughters 4 beautiful grand kids I'm rich beyond measure I couldn't agree more. Seems the "richest" people in the world, don't measure it in dollars and cents. Quote
