Guess that's part of what I like the best about Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" and "The Gift of the Magi". I relate. The Cratchets and the couple in "Magi" seem to have nothing, yet what they have is priceless.

I love those two stories. I just wish it could be understood what truly is priceless. But, then what would we do on "black friday". LOL
