Simple Happiness

I don't live in a mansion, but I'm rich...
I don't have lots of money, but I'm rich...
I know I can't possess every material thing there is, but still, I know I'm rich...
And though there are no treasures buried in my backyard, I know I'm the richest person alive...
I'm rich because I'm deeply loved by the people around me.
They shower their affection ever so warmly that it sometimes seems their breath is the air I
breathe...they simply give me life.
It's quite fascinating how this wealth fulfills me, satisfies me, and makes me whole...and nothing could ever measure up to the contentment I now feel just by having those special people around.
Thank you for staying by me...your love sustains me, and I am forever your servant of love.
