I hugged my husband and he kissed me in return.

　　“I guess you’re right,” he agreed. “We love each other. We have our health and enough money to live on comfortably. That’s all that matters.”

　　We had to move out of our house into an apartment. Since few people could afford a house in those hard days, we decided to offer it for considerably less than it would normally be worth. Even so, several buyers changed their mind days before closing. But finally, our home was sold.

　　As we shook hands with the new owners, I told them how fortunate they were.

　　“Not only are you getting a bargain in the price, but this house has good luck. We bought the house from a family who lived in it for nine years. They were a happy family, a husband, wife and five children. It was a cheerful house and we had a good feeling about it. We raised our children here as well.”

　　“That’s good to hear,” the young woman said with a smile. “We have two young children ourselves. And I believe in luck too.”

　　We nodded our heads in agreement, understanding each other.

　　“You’ll live only six houses from the best primary school in the town and your children won’t even have to cross a street,” I said. “Our children used to come home each day and have lunch with me.”

　　“We like the woods in the back,” the young man told us. “We’re going to plant a large garden in the backyard.”
