A Million Dollars

Original Post: July 9, 2007

If you had a million dollars, would it affect who you chose to spend the rest of your life with? Would you still lay your head down with the same lover? Imagine vacations in far-away lands, resting on a hammock together, giggling over tourists in big glasses and funny hats? Would you be growing old with the same person you are ticking away your time with now? Rocking on chairs on the front porch of a big yellow house, holding hands and still playing together as if there were no end in sight? If you had a million dollars, would it change the love of your life? Perhaps you would sacrifice a million dollars to find that kind of love? How fine is the line between sacrifice, settling, solitude and serenity?
