In Order of Importance

Thought Questions

My ranking:
1.  Health
2.  Love
3.  Happiness
4.  Money
5.  Fame

Wow, this was actually really hard to rank.  Many of these go hand-in-hand for me.  I do believe that without our health, however, we can't truly enjoy the rest.  Then again, when I didn't have my health love certainly made up the difference.  The first three really can be interchangeable, depending on the circumstance.

Money is important simply because we can't get the things we need in life without having a source of income.    Everything we do in society revolves around money.  Without making our rent payment we couldn't even do the "free" activities because we would be too worried about where we were going to sleep and how we were going to eat.  I don't need a whole lot to live on, but I'm not going to lie and tell you I don't care about money at all.  It IS essential to our daily lives.

Fame on the other hand.... I really don't give a care about fame.  As long as my family knows who I am, that's the important part.  My husband and children all think I'm terrific.  They would all rather have me here than any celebrity.  In many ways I have all the fame I could ask for!

Interesting question. I think, my list would look a lot like yours. Health is truly important and what we need in order to accomplish all else!!!

This was really tough to answer Susi. I think so much of life is intertwined.
