Health is often a blessing from our genetics and the miracle of modern medicine. Wealth is much more than money. As for friends &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I have very few friends that fall into the category of life long, best friends; there are 2, my brother Rob and Jonas. Admittedly it took me becoming an adult for my friendship with my brother to really be a friendship. Jonas and I met on the first day of 9th grade in a DOD school in Osterholz Germany. It took a major fight and apologies for things to really be able to settle into a lasting friendship. It is now 26 years later and we get our families together as often as occasion permits. We sometimes take our wives and sneak away too.<\/p>\n<p>I also have good friends that I spend the day to day of life with. Men and Women that in time have the potential to be life long friends. Be a friend to others and your life will be enriched in so many miraculous ways! Be grateful for the blessings you have and rejoice in the wonder and glory of life.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Happy New Year!<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">iron wil<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best friendship.&#8221; &#8211; Buddha I wanted to start this year&#8217;s posts with this one specifically because as people; we pursue health, wealth, and friendships &#8230; along with family, these are the best parts of our lives.
