What money cannot buy

Hi
I've making a list of things which money cannot buy. Here are some of them:
A best friend who knows exactly how to make you smile, no matter what.
The cold side of the pillow on a warm summer night.
Finding something you thought you had lost forever in a place you least expected it to be.
The sound and sight of ocean waves.
Hearing my cat purr when I stroke him.
Hearing from someone you care about and finding out that they care about you too.
Coming back to the comfort of your own bed when you have been away.
What would you add to the list?
Joan

Money cannot buy your grandson buying me some flowers out of his own pocket money before coming to see me.
When I asked why he bought me such a beautiful bunch of flowers his answer was You cannot walk Nana and you can't buy them so I got them for you.
Did the tears roll down my face.
Money can never be worth more than that.
When we all played Ludo I could not get a six when his turn came around he got a six and said I will get you out now.
All the money in the world could never be worth more than that.

Ah Trish, money could definitely not buy you the love of your grandson. That is priceless. He sounds a wonderful little boy.
Love Joan xx0 -
money can not buy a childs smile or laugh
or the enjoyment from eating fresh bread and butter
walking in the sea on a warm day
being with some one who loves you
friends with out who life would be so different
could go on but better take some pain medsval0 -
hugs from my boy and him saying "mummy, I love you" - more precious than gold to me.0

Good health. Those that have it don't value it. Those that don't have it, do. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

The colours of the autumn leaves and their crunching under your feet on a autumn day. All the flowers and their beautiful smells.
The bluebells in the woods......
ElizabethNever be bullied into silence.
Never allow yourself to be made a victim.
Accept no ones definition of your life
Define yourself........

What a lovely thread! My list is:
Seeing my children laugh and smile
Watching my children
The smell of bonfires
Having a kiss and cuddle after a long day
Walking in the park on a hot summer's day trying to guess the names of wildlife (badly)
Having a really good belly laugh
And I'm going to be the first to say it - having s3x There, you knew I'd be the first to break this taboo

Oh Nina I thought you was meaning a Suzuki SX3
and I wondered how that could be free. :roll: :roll:
Yes, I know, like I keep saying I'm a bit of an old bird
and maybe senility is creeping in. :roll: :roll:

Humour, an absolute necessity for tackling life's ups and down (oo heck it looks like something on the word/sentence game" thread)0

Hi Joan,
Money only gets material things.... everything else is Priceless! Cris xx0 -
The smell of the sea, the garden after rain and newly baked bread.
The sight of rowan berries against a blue sky and sloes against a stormy one.
The sound of children's happy voices on a frosty morning and the sound of the cat chirruping a welcome home.
