Have you noticed that you just can't get enough of what you do not need?

Have you noticed that you just can't get enough of what you do not need? And it is not possible to purchase happiness at a store on the internet or in a catalog. What we need most in life are the things money simply cannot buy. A man by the name of Harold B. Lee told a childhood story of the Great Depression
One day he spoke of the depression, he spoke of his mother as a skilled homemaker and his father as a farmer and person of many odd jobs to make ends meet. He made the statement. “WE HAD EVERTHING MONEY COULD NOT BUY." One of our most valu...able qualities is Love. As you look at your family origin no matter how "un" perfect it may be, do not despair. You can set in motion a new pattern of behavior in your house and family that will send a rippling effect and mold the lives of your children, grand children which has the potential to carry on throughout the generations to come. Gordon B. Hinckley stated. When I got married I was very anxious about the economic realities of my marriage. His totaled his assets and realized he had less than $150. Even more alarming, he only made 185.00 a month. In talking to his wife Majorie about his worries she put his fears to rest. She replied. Well I had only hoped for a husband, and now I found out I am getting $150 too!! This will work wonderfully she told him. If you've got $150 dollars we’re set. As we ponder our lives the majority of life’s problems will fade away depending on how we react to them. When you find the things in life that really matter most the other things fade in their level of importance. Money cannot buy True Love, Eternal Health, or Lasting Happiness. Basically money is a Universal passport to everywhere but Heaven.
