The Most Valuable Thing

One day, there was a boy walking on the street with his belongings. He bought a rotten leaf in his pocket and wore a small ring on his finger.

Then he met an old man with his grandson in the middle of his journey. The boy’s ring looked so beautiful and attract the child, so the old man asked him for his ring because his grandson want it so bad.
The boy gave up his ring, and the Old man offered him two million dolar for his ring (what a rich old man 0_o).
But, gently the boy reject the money, he said, “Just take it for free, I don’t really need it though..”, then he continued his journey..

After a moment, suddenly he looked so panic. He groped on his pocket several times, searching for something looks very precious to him. “Hey, where is my brown leaf?” He shouted aloud, “Anybody see my leaf? Anybody help me find my leaf, I’ll give my two million dolar, no, ten million dolar for my leaf!!”

Don’t u get it? how much something means to you, that’s how high its value. Not to be measured by what is the thing, how is the quality, or how cool it is. Having a lot of money doesn’t mean someone happy. So, look around! Your family, your friends, a pair of old shoes that your father gave when you’re five, an ugly broken doll that your lover brought to you. Hey, you are a rich person!

Hey, maybe your dog is your valuable treasure?
