Why is it when you have money, you have no time and when you have time you have no money?
I am a work widow. My mouth is tied by guilt, my heart is thumping with sadness, and my mind keeps ticking about the injustice of it all.
As I enter each stage of life, I regret the lack of understanding I held for the previous stage. It was good then.
what have I learned?
Time is better than money.
Helplessness makes me angry.
If I would have known that I wouldn't be able to see squat at 45, I would have paid more attention to stuff around me.

A long time ago, when Andy and I had little to no money after working for a month, I became good friends with a woman married to a CEO with Conoco (go figure!) Anyway, one day I was lamenting living in a mobil home and wishing I had a grand home like hers. She looked at me a long time and said very quietly, "I'd gladly live in your home if my husband would be home with me instead of at work."
I've never forgotten that conversation.
I think time is so much better than money! especially if that time is filled with love and people you love!!!
Wow, I love Amy's comment!!!
never take for granted ALL that we have.
