  1. I beg to differ, haven't you ever been to the playground in the rain?


  2. Love is the best thing. And it's free.

    Just Keepin it reall! :D

  3. Because that would be too easy. lol

  4. Because the best things take effort! Hard work, drive, motivation~

  5. thats not true, the best things are free, love...friendship, etc. n i got my cats for free :D

  6. 'cause then it wouldn't be special anymore! =)

  7. You've got it all wrong.  The best things in life ARE free, because the best things in life are not things.

  8. wait...the best things in life ARE free...you got the saying wrong...maybe material things that come with a price aren't the best things in life.  maybe the best thing in life is just being alive.

  9. actually the best thing in life is love which is priceless

  10. because it would be too easy to get the best things in life

  11. Define best things.

    Humor is free, relationships are free, trust is free, loyalty is free, and purpose is free.

    The best things in life can be resourced. You are just looking in the wrong place.  

  12. Becuse people have dicovered that if someone really wants something that they will probably get it  

  13. Because everything comes with a price? I dunno. lol.

  14. because i was what willis was talking about :]

  15. cause life is greedy and alls people want is money.  it sucks i no

  16. Then nobody would get rich and the people who wanna be rich cannot stand not being rich.

  17. Welcome to the gooddd lifeeeeeee

  18. Life isn't fair D:

  19. What? Are you like the most materialistic person on the face of the planet? A sweet breeze is free. A baby's kiss is free. Rain and sun are free. Flowers and family are free, eyesight is free as are all the five senses if you are gifted with all of them. Life is free, it is only people who give it a cost.

    What? Do you want an expensive car? Is your house not big or impressive enough? If this is what you base your idea of what the 'best things' in life are, you are shallow and seriously in need of validation from other people's opinions of your worth. I am hoping this is a facetious question on your part. The benefit of the doubt I am giving you is also free.

  20. Well because nothing good is free.

    Every thing worth anything has to be worked hard for.

    If the best things in life were free, everything would become easy, and it would no longer be the best thing.

    If that doesn't make sense I'll put it simpler, if the best things were free, you would take it for granted. In order to appreciate something you have to know what it is like to work for it, to almost have it and it slip away.

    Kind of like love, some people say in order to truly fall in love, you have to have your heart broken, otherwise you don't know what it feels like to NOT be in love, and therefore you cannot understand love completely, and if you cannot understand something you cannot experience it.

    EDIT: To everyone saying that material things are the only things with prices. That is just downright not true. Something can have a 'price' without costing MONEY. You don't just fall in love one day, it takes work, courage, and many other things. You don't just get an education, you have to pay for it (still not talking money) you have to study, know when to say when, and push yourself. You don't just know how to be a parent, you have to work for it.

    To those saying the best things in life are not things. Yes they are. Again maybe not material things, but they are things. Love is a thing. Happiness is a thing. Everything is a thing.

    To TheFlowerLady: a baby's kiss is free huh? How do you figure? If it is your own child, your saying you didn't have to 'Pay' anything for that kiss. You just, got pregnant, had the kid, and raised it all without any sacrifice what so ever? With out any headaches, stomach aches, stressful times?

    Life is free? How do you figure? Life its self might be free but what is the purpose if living life if you don't have freedom? And guess what, freedom is not free. It costs, lives, bullets, lots of tears, hard work. etc. If you look at it like this, a breeze is not even free. To continue to have that breeze one must accept that we are slowly killing the breeze. GLOBAL WARMING. To hold on to the breeze we, as a world, have to get rid of fossil fuels, we have to change our lifestyles (which is not free) nor is finding alternative energy options (actually costs money)

    I just hope your comment about being materialistic was to the Poster of this question and not me. As I could care less about any material item I have.

  21. Because life's not fair.

  22. because once you earn the money to buy that thing the feeling of accomplishment intesifies the gratification and makes you feel better.

  23. I love shooting Freethrows... those are my favorite shots but its actually not free cuz its so hard to make when you are under pressure....

  24. Cos nothing else matters in the end but love so I guess :)

    ♥

  25. Do you really want me to go to a whole lecture on economics? Cause I will!
