When I first saw this prompt I really didn't quite know which way I wanted to approach this. But by golly I think I got it now lol.
I am richer for knowing the things I do, I am richer for having been lucky enough to meet some really wonderful people.
I am poorer for not knowing all that I probably could, I am poorer for having met some really ignorant people and not being able to make them see things in a better light.
I am richer for having a loving family, I am richer to be greeted with their smiles, love and laughter.
I am poorer for not having all the family members I began my life with due to illnesses or just because they lived a full life and it was their time. I am poorer for knowing that some people don't have love, laughter, or smiles in their life instead they are always full of anger, frustration and hurt.
I am richer to have things that some people can only dream to have, I am richer for just loving life.
I am poorer for not being able to give all that I have to those that are less fortunate, although I do donate to charitable organizations and participate in walks and fundraiser it still isn't enough. I am poorer knowing that my love of life is something that someone else is missing out on.
I am richer for knowing that maybe some day my wishes for happiness, and good health to all will some day come true.
I am poorer for knowing that my wish for happiness and good health to all is simply a wish.
I am richer just for being me.

You have made me richer for sharing with me.
Great take on the prompt! I hadn't even considered that angle.
Thanks so much for the encouraging comment. I appreciate it very much.
Looks like you can't have the one without the other, but I think you're doing okay!
Good write...
You nailed it! Really it's all about gratitude. Thanks for sharing.
I agree with you, "I am poorer for not being able to give all that I have to those that are less fortunate" I too wish I could do more than I currently do... I always feel like it's never enough.
Wish I'd thought of this. I had no ideas on how to tackle the prompt. Great job.
