Everything He Ever Wanted

He grew up a happy child and without an ounce of greed he’d look around at his world and think…“I have everything I need.” “I have a home, and food and toys… what more do I require? I have a loving family…What more could I desire? And on the day he married without an ounce of greed he looked around his world and thought,…“I have everything I need.” “I have my family’s encouragement… What more do I require? I have a wife who I love and who loves me…What more could I desire.” And when they were blessed with children without an ounce of greed he looked around his world and thought…“I have everything I need.” “I have the joy and laughter of children… What more do I require? I have a family who I love and who loves me…What more could I desire?” And when they were blessed with grandchildren without an ounce of greed he looked around at his world and thought…“I have everything I need.” “I have grandchildren who smile when they see me What more do I require I have grandchildren who I can spoil……What more could I desire?” That happy child grew into an happy old man and without an ounce of greed He looks around his world and thinks “I have everything I need.” “How could I have known,” he wonders as his smile remains…undaunted “that everything I ever needed would be everything I ever wanted."
