A little exchange i had with a friend on Facebook

Monique : When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other.

Paul Hood:

Or: dramatically raise prices on fuel, thus driving a large percentage of the populace into bankruptcy and foreclosure, thus driving many financial institutions into bankruptcy. Then take one of your pennies and buy up all the ruined lending institutions for a fraction of their true value. Exert pressure on the government for a financial bail out. Now you own all the pennies and you have no competitors because you own them. Let's play monopoly !

Paul Hood:

But then again, Monique, I prefer your idea.

Monique:

I never really cared for Monopoly..

Monique:

May you be the queen of your hive—the passionate, powerful center of your universe. May others be drawn to your happiness, like bees to a flower. And may their joy ‘gild your lily.’

Paul Hood:

You're a gem, Monique.

Monique:

aaaww... A little tarnished but, every now and again a little sparkle shines through.
Thank you, Paul!
