People and things you value the most

by **High Guard** on Tue Sep 04, 2007 10:50 pm

What's most important to you in life: Family, friends, that new car you just bought? Post your top 10 most valued things or people and why.
Here are mine:
1. Family - very important to me, through I haven't spoken to my mom in 4 months.
2. Friends - where would we be with out the support of our friends.
3. I would say girlfriend but I don't have one right now.

4. Education - it defines who we are and what we are to become.
5. Nobility - To me that's very important, what kind of effect we have on other people changes not only them but us as well.
6. Contacts - Who would we be with out our contacts, nobody, no way of getting things.
7. Skills/Talent - it's an important part of everyones character.
8. Money - ever heard a phrase "God Money"? In todays society money is very important
9. Everything else.
10. There 10

Too bad in countries where we are meant to get freedom of speech, sometimes we can't. :roll:

They're kinda the same. While not being exactly the same, there are so many areas where they overlap (especialy for the more intensely religous people, whos life seems to revolve around the fact that they are Christian) that it's pretty pointless to seperate them for something like this.

Yeah, I really don't know what I'd do without my baronetcy.

How could we? We wouldn't even be able to see what we were getting! What if we were reaching for a loaf of bread and accidentally grabbed the cat and ate it!?! That's why you should visit the optometrist once every 6 months sharp.

1. Friends
2. Family (although the vast majority of my family I would regard as friends)
3. Happiness
