Money is so full of nothing It has no love to share No care for others No hope No faith Money will split a family apart Just look around and watch Time after time it's greed destroys Annihilates Consumes Teases and kills Who invented this cursed medium Which drives people to obliterate others Which thrives on making a person completely selfish Which keeps building because it finds no limit suitable The root of all evil is such an appropriate tag Such a fitting name for the great destroyer The buck should have ceased with the kind deer I have to laugh at those who say 'If I only had money' Is it not better to take stock in what we could all have Like goodness Friendship God Don't try and combine the above words with money Please! Okay! Promise? And one more thing Don't try a charge card disguise You plastic money mongers |

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh my gosh, I know just how you feel, and wish we all could all live together and cherish what we have; our love, our lives, our hopes. (sigh) I pray that we can reach out to all the needy with our loving hearts! (big hugggsssssss) So sad but well-expressed, sweet friend! You have such a beautfiul heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Like your messsage but I'll be a money chaser just the same but not to turn rags to riches...I do know what you mean and have suffered plentifully on its account but the issue living on this continent is not simple..need I say more? [This message has been edited by ecrivan (12-29-2001 11:59 PM).] |

ecrivan, it sounds like you have the much sought after secret. somewhat of a limit. Just try and hold that limit in tact. That is the secret. Rog And thank you Noah for your kind comment. Rog |

some people are so hooked on money and it makes me sick. Now don't get me wrong I don't mind having some money, but it is the people who base their whole exsistance on it and miss the finer points of life that really get to me.. Good Job! Freedom is not Free (Korean War memorial) |
