GUEST, quirky but true, you have looked at the link, haven't you?

Traditionally, the HAVES have been considered to be the ones with all the trappings of material success and wealth. I have met and worked for some of these people - I have seen what their lives are like, and I would not choose to live in their world. I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with having money, but in my opinion,these are not the things that bring true happiness.

I have very little money, but I am rich in friends and family, in my connection with the natural world, and my appreciation of the many things that give me pleasure, such as music, sunsets, the smell of a frangipani, and a million other small things.

I haven't always played it safe, but the risk-taking has been rewarding. My life has been, and continues to be, an interesting journey. I'm happy to be one of Leunigs "those who have a twinkle in their eye".
