Happy and content Quote by M.L. Young
““I looked over at Kyle as he did his pushups. What if he did make it big? Did it matter? Sure, it would help, if we even went that far and got married or something, but I didn’t care if he did or not. Money doesn’t make the man; the man makes the man. I didn’t need millions of dollars to be happy and content with my life. As long as I wasn’t struggling and could afford a vacation once a year and keep food on the table, I’d be a happy girl.””
