I'Ll Settle

I want to own my home
But the mortgage is too high
I want that great job
But there's no applications to apply
I want that new fancy car
But the payments just can't be done
So I'll settle for my wonderful husband
And my three terrific sons

And in that family you have treasure money can't buy. I'm glad to hear you cherish it like I do my own family. We live simply as did my parents. Wonderful message in this poem. Thank you for sharing it and for your kind comments. Keep on writing from the heart! Karen

I am right there with you, Sweetie! Unfortunately, this is all too true for too many people these days... the part about being jobless. I really enjoyed the way you turned it around and made the situation positive...more than positive, this is full of inspiration. Also, in our "Oh-so-busy-lives" we tend to get caught up in the rat race and forget what really matters. Loved the write.
