Do You Envy The Famous?

I was going through my Mom's things, and came across this news clipping from 1961. My Mom is Toni Demeter, and I like the answer that she gave to the reporter.

How would you answer? I think my own answer would be similar to my Mom's with the exception that I would like the money that some very famous people have accumulated.

Sorting through old photos, and my Mom's personal files have actually helped in my coping with her recent death. I feel closer to her, and my thoughts are turning to happy memories, instead of the intense pain that I felt since her diagnosis, and death.

What a blessing this is to have this to remember her and her wise answers. If I had a lot of money, I would find a way to share it with others. . . not just the poor but the middle class who often get as neglected whn it comes to help.

Take care and remember the joys your Mom brought, not only to you but to others.
