Life is More

Have you ever thought about what life would be like if we never thought about ourselves? Selfishness and greed are terribly disturbing and dangerous aspects of the typical human personality. The reason that I'm saying all of this is because I managed to get my hands on a copy of USA Today this morning. I read page after page and realized that roughly 80% of all of the columns and articles were about money and our countries current economic downfall. The media has become a bit of a downer to say the least. Look at where being a rich country has gotten us. When things begin to get the slightest bit difficult financially, we panic because we are short on money. I swear that I've seen people get less upset when their relatives pass away. I just wish that everyone would take just a second to think about how even though money is a little tight we are still very very rich people. Money has become so important to some that when their bank account is almost in the red, then they get worried and sometimes even sick. Tell me, if you lose your health, then what do you have? To get so upset over something so petty is disgusting. So, do yourself a favor and quit thinking that being wealthy has anything to do with your quality of life, because money is not life. Watch a sunrise or talk to a complete stranger or just tell your family that you love them, just don't make yourself a slave to something as petty as money. When you constantly spend your days pursuing financial success, you will never have money, because your money will always have you.
