Hi Janine, no no, it’s not that I’m saying money isn’t everything…I actually believe it’s important, very important, it gives us choices. What I’m trying [fumbling] to say in this post is that some gifts are there for all of us, and not because a person is poor he / she can’t appreciate beauty. Beautiful things are free, if only we can see / hear them. Hmm, now that I think of it, this post does also say that money isn’t everything. Thanks once again for noticing my blog.
