Hey, we're progressing as a society. These days you're much less likely to get beat up if you wear long hair. Raise that American flag high!

I completely understand where Grandpa is coming from. Money can open up a lot of doors. If you look at the U.S. for instance the least wealthy also have the poorest health.
A healthy balance of all 3 is my choice.
That's well put Dave. A healthy balance of all 3 is most desirable. Thanks.
Once you have the basic level of health to not be in constant pain or disabled and enough money to meet your basic needs, then love for sure.
I've lived extremely cheaply, and that period was probably my happiest. Loneliness is worse than most other deficiencies excluding the most fundamental biological requirements.
Having only experienced the unrequited variety of love I know it is far more painful than lacking other luxuries.
Serious as a heart attack...
...and twice as deadly.
Reminds me of the choices God gave to Noah and his two brothers. Found it in the Akashic records a couple of years ago. Yeah, I know, not in the Bible. The victorious write the history.
God told Noah, Yeah, and Wheeah of the coming evil he was going to visit on them in the form of the flood. Asked the three what they was gonna do about it. Noah was going to bust ass for a long time and build a boat to save himself.
Yeah, he was gonna persuade all those that was gonna drown to alter their lifestyles under his direction and control the weather so it wouldn't rain and cause a flood.
Wheeah said to hell with both of his brothers' plans, he was gonna party to his last breath.
Fine with me, said God. Just don't be regetting your decisions and you'll all be rewarded in paradise.
Don't hear but about Noah, and now you know why. Let there be Light.

When motherhood becomes the fruit of a deep yearning, not the result of ignorance or accident, its children will become a new race.
God bless people's ability to join together to share their worlds, like a
vast deck of cards on an endless table.

With love and health I would only need enough money for beer.
Good topic Affluence.
Religion is poison because it asks us to give up our most precious faculty, which is that of reason, and to believe things without evidence. It then asks us to respect this, which it calls faith. - Christopher Hitchens
Love . Money keeps getting worth less and less. Health is only good as long as you live and living alone is not what most people see as the most desirable way getting to the grave.
My former wife came from a family of 11 children. The family was as poor as could be but they were quite a happy family none the less. And the family was full of love.
My point is love is life's palliative.
We all reach the same destination where someone throws dirt on our face and those we have loved go home to dinner and talk about the dearly departed.
Love makes it easier to get to the grave than either health or money and I think the reason for this is that it addresses a more complete picture of what it means to be a human than the merely one dimensional characteristics of wealth and health.
Love is different. It is spiritual and addresses that part of human nature which is not physical. To say it does not meet the needs of a human being is erroneous. Money does not satisfy the basic needs that love satisfies and love extends the meaning of what it is to be a human. Money and health do not have the same qualities IMO.
I've heard that reference to the manifestation of the Records; I've heard of a hall of doors; and the Great Library. I use the projection technique and in using that technique could care less whether the record is of this world my body inhabits or that of another's world.

Yes GrandPa. Its like a never ending deck of cards. We can keep playing indefinitely. And we share our worlds through words which seem to me to have the magic of creating ideas with which we can commence.
That was very well put Hermenutic and better put than I could have done. I agree.
