Nothing can buy a better night’ s sleep. Although it sounds silly, it was the first thing that crossed my mind when I awoke. I truly appreciated my happy rest. It was like a gig from heaven. Interesting to think that Bill Gates, or any rich men you can mention, really couldn’ t have had a more satisfying and grateful night of sleep—the best that money can’t buy.
That starts me thinking of other pleasures that cost nothing or very little and that are often taken for granted, like a drink of cold water on a hot day when you’ re really thirsty, or a warm relaxing bath when you’ re extremely tired or mentally exhausted.
Remember your first real kiss—can you put a price tag on that? Or the companionship of a faithful and loving pet or the clean, fresh smell of mountain air? There’s an old song, "The Best Things in Life Are Free."
Did you ever eat a meal that not only filled your stomach and satisfied all your tastes, but refreshed your soul? Ever spend a winter’ s evening in the company of good friends?
What could be better than listening to your favorite music or watching a good movie? Or sharing the beauty of a sunset with a loved one? These are quite delightful and delicate pleasures. I hope this doesn’t sound too ridiculous in today’ s rough, loud world. I hope the new generation can appreciate some of these things.
