Happiness Values

I do note things in a need versus want scenario and in doing so, it came upon me that I already have all that I need in life.  There are wants, but they are non-material and cannot be bought.  However, I do value them above all else.  It is nice to know my wants do not have price tags nor material value.  Then again it is also nice to know that I do not need these non-material forms to be whole or to maintain my life.  It surely was odd to contemplate values today with such clarity.  Perhaps it was the rays of the sun shining through the clouds, the lady bugs dancing about, or the look Charlie gave me when he noted that I was deep in thought.  “You are a deep lady” he stated.  “Are you happy?” I asked.  “Charlie, where lies value?”  “In heath” he replied. ~ Maggie ~ Penned prior to 3:00 p.m. EST November 4, 2008
