The cost of anything is the price you are willing to pay for it...

Dear Blog,
  The title has made me think.
Most things we have comes at a cost it is automatically assumed even before we look at the tag. But 'how much', is the only question we ask as we select the car, clothes or even groceries. Then we move to'do we really need it?' if the price seems a bit too steep, and finally, we may stop at 'maybe next time' or 'sure, why not?'
 Then blog I wondered about the things we cannot see nor measure except with our hearts - peace, happiness, love, time...
Time, you ask - surely we can measure Time.
Time on a clock, yes, but the quality of time spent cannot be measured so easily and it would come at price too, dont you think?

So Blog when it comes to PEACE - what is the price we are willing to pay? Or would the price, if our answer is 'do we really need it?', be paid by our children?
What then of JOY, LOVE and HAPPINESS? I guess we never really think about the consequences of our actions yet expect them to automatically end with one of the above or a combination of them....Is it really that easy or are we willing to pay the price?

"Price, price", I hear you say. "What is the price? Is it standard for everyone?"

No Blog, the cost of anything is the price you are willing to pay for it...
