gold

i went by to see a friend

found him digging in a hole

i ask him what he was doing

said he heard somewhere near this spot

someone had found gold

well i said and what would you do

if this treasure you did find

”why i would build a castle or buy a plane

a mazeratti would be nice”

i began to laugh because my friend was wealthy

as to his means ” and what would you be willing to give up because everything has a price”

he stopped shoveling and gave it a little thouight

at that moment his beautiful wife and children

came running through the yard

” Father what are you looking for as he relished in their smiles”

he looked at me and then replied ,” i thought i was missing something, i see now i was wrong”

takes different things before people realize how lucky they are

some take notice and get it and others lose what they have

above your needs, above your health, above everything

be grateful

that’s were the gold is
