Why

"I do not think they asked why they were dieing, but why they had lived. When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies. Maybe to be practical is madness. To seek treasure where there is only trash. Perhaps to be practical may be madness. And maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it ought to be!" What wise words spoken by such a wise poet. It has often been said that one mans trash is another mans treasure. Why is this? Because one man who thinks one thing is worthless doesnt see the true value of it. When you have been without something, you realize the true value of it. When you obtain everything, you tend to value everything less. Maybe to be rich isnt such a good thing. It raises your expectations for everything. You lose the simple pleasures and joys in life like:

• Opening the fridge and finding food.
• A toothless smile.
• The smell of pine
• Setting up the Christmas tree.
• An act of kindness.
• Holding hands.
• Natural beauty
• Colors
• Warm blankets
• Free hugs
• Snow
• Falling leaves
• Wind through your hair
• Hair on your head
• Strength
• Words to express how you feel
• Jumping in puddles

Just a few things that I enjoy. I hope that you can see the simple joys in life, and never forget the value of these little things that bring smiles to your face.
