THOUGHTS FROM MY HEART ~ home & garden

Priceless!

"There are things that can be bought with money--

but there are some things that money cannot buy!

With money--we may build a house, and adorn and furnish it.

But money cannot buy home happiness,

and the sweetness, comfort, and refinement

which make true home life!

With money--we may purchase food and clothing, coal for the fire,

and luxuries for physical enjoyment.

But money cannot buy . . .

fine character,

moral beauty,

a gentle spirit,

peace in the heart, or

any of the elements which make up a noble personality!"

~J R Miller
~"The Yellow Jacket" (1879)
