Okay, I don't remember what I said in lunch group today, but when I said it the therapist looked at me and said, "Marry rich Michelle." (meaning, marry a rich man). I think I was talking about owning a house or something like that, I honestly don't remember, but I do remember looking right at her and saying, "Nope, LOVE before money!"...I guess this song sums it up real good. I love this song.

"DON'T THINK I CAN'T LOVE YOU"

By: Jake Owens

Well, I learned the hard way real early in life

That money sure don't grow on a tree

And there's a few things that a dollar can't buy

The best things in life, they come free

Chorus:So girl, I can't buy you a big diamond ring

No house on a hill full of life's finer things

And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do

Oh, but baby, don't think I can't love you

And when I get home after workin' all day

I'm beat down, girl dead on my feet

But as tired as I am, if you wanna playWell, playin' sounds real good to me

Chorus:'Cause girl, I can't buy you a big diamond ring

No house on a hill full of life's finer things

And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do

Oh, but baby, don't think I can't love you

So girl, I can't buy you a big diamond ring

No house on a hill full of life's finer things

And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do

Oh, but baby, baby, oh baby, don't think I can't love you

And ya'll can say I'm only saying this because I don't have a rich man...ahhh, number 1...nope, no financially wealthy man in my life, but there is "richness" in other ways that far outreach money!

And, number 2: Yeah sure, money helps and it is necessary to live, but you don't need an abundance of it to be happy. If money and financial wealth make you happy than more power to you, but if that is how you define yourself...by your financial wealth...well then, you're surely missing out on a lot!!!!! LOVE before money, ANYDAY!
