Is it that exciting? Yes it is! And it would be to you if you didn't have it and then you got it. Confused? You should be since I have been speaking code thus far. But this is going somewhere-don't worry. The point is-if you did not have the money for something that you needed-and then it was given to you-whether big or small-you would feel like you just won a million dollars! To someone who has had this thing for years it would be no big deal-but if you didn't have it and couldn't afford one you would be jumping for joy too! Maybe we should spend more time being happy for others and thinking as if we were in their position before we say anything...Just a thought. =)

It would be nice if people were happy for one another. It would be nice if they obtain facts before judging although judge but we've all done it or will do it. If we have five dollars that's five dollars more than we add. It does add up.

@Teep11 Yes it would! I know we all judge, but some do it a whole lot more than others!

As I have never felt a million dollars I don't know what it would be like to feel like a million dollars. LOL. I would however feel wonderful for the fact that I could now have what I couldn't afford.

I agree we don't need millions although it would be nice to experience it. Like you all my life I've never had much no matter how hard I try, one step forward and two back at times. It would be nice to get ahead once in a while and not have to worry.

@LovingMyBabies That is so true there are so many people worse off. You don't need lots to feel the riches of life.

@kevin1877uk Yeah it would be amazing to be able to have more than enough every now and then. But at the same time, there are people who are much worse off than we are and I try to remind myself of that often.

It´s ok to reflect in the views of others from time to time, it helps expand our perspective on life and other matters.

@quantum2020 Yeah of course it is and it's something we should do at times in order to be happy for them or sympathetic towards them.

When somebody gives me a present that i've been so wanting, even if it didn't cost a thing, I feel like I've won a million. When a cousin of mine was in the military long time ago, every time he paid me a visit, that made me so happy like I've won millions of money.

Good advice. I find it hard not be envious sometimes but I have everything I need really and should just be more thankful.

@Judyev Thank you. Yeah I was feeling sorry for myself the other day about not being able to go anywhere for our anniversary. Then we go to the gas station and a homeless man is laying by the dumpster, suddenly I realized how ungrateful I was being and how blessed I am.

That is so true for the truth of the matter is that true happiness if found in potting others first, being happy for what they receive
