perhaps a cherished memory,
but only a dream - nothing more.
I will make all decisions and actions based solely
on what I have today as a starting point."

and am contributing right now to another quality memory.
I value you and honor and take the time,
right this moment to pause long enough to truly notice you."

not much money, but a rich you;
not many things, but an open being,
available to millions of things.

one's sense of inherent worth.
