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.
