Wealth Is Happiness! (A personal post)

There are so many different definitions to the term "Wealth"

Here are some as per the online dictionaries out there:

Wealth:

1. a great quantity or store of money, valuable possessions, property, or other riches:
   the wealth of a city.

2. an abundance or profusion of anything; plentiful amount:
   a wealth of imagery.

3. Economics.

4. all things that have a monetary or exchange value.

5. anything that has utility and is capable of being appropriated or exchanged.

6. rich or valuable contents or produce:
   the wealth of the soil.

7. the state of being rich; prosperity; affluence:
   persons of wealth and standing.

8. Personal
   Happiness.

So, taking all of the above into consideration it all boils down to definition number 6.

Why?

Well, simply, if money makes a person happy then no matter how we may describe that person, it comes down to happiness.

If the State we live in is wealthy, there is a good chance that the system that the state is run by adheres to a persons rights to individuality and hence the citizens of the state have all the basic needs along with a basic foundation to human rights and everything that it takes so that individuals can achieve their own individual goals and in tun happiness.
Note: not all states and peoples on this earth have this, many still live in totalitarian regimes in which their individuality is not allowed. Sad but true.

So my conclusion is that the greatest wealth of all is achieving happiness!

Sometimes it doesn't take much to achieve this, it can be as simple as having an opportunity to express yourself freely without the fear of being ridiculed for it. It could be as simple as getting things off your chest and moving forwards with your life.

It could be as complex as making a business with the goal to turn it into a corporate and financial empire!

It could be something as personal as enjoying time with ones loved ones.

What ever it is, "Wealth = Happiness".

In this world we live in, for most things in life we need some sort of funds to achieve our happiness, not for everything, but as things work, we need funds to ensure that we can survive in this world order. Just a fact of life.

A lot of what I have written has been based heavily upon my own life experiences. Likewise this post is another conclusion that I have come to as a result of all the things I have seen and experienced through this very short life span on this earth.

Our biggest obstacle in achieving our wealth, our goals, our happiness is in fact time.

Time flies, it zooms on by so fast that we don't even realize it.

So one thing that I have learned is to do things today and not leave them for tomorrow, if it can be done today it is achieved today and we can move on to the next thing. Nothing worse than "procrastinating".

The beauty of Steemit for me is that I can share a lot of "ME" here, as an individual.
My thoughts, my experiences and sometimes even some personal aspects as an individual.

It all seems to make a lot more sense when a person sets goals in life, no matter what they may be, these goals should lead towards happiness.
Once you achieve these goals you have achieved at that moment wealth that can not be described in words.

It is at this point in time, in a persons life that new goals need to be set.

Enjoying life brings about happiness for everyone around you, it makes life so much more better for everyone. Makes everyone around you see what the true meaning of "Wealth" is.
Even if some don't figure it out, you are the example in life, the person who helps them get there.

Thought I would share some thoughts again, some of the things that are a part of "ME" as an individual.

No one is perfect, we are all far from it, but we can all strive for the goal of happiness on an individual level.

Once we see things after achieving some of our material goals in life, then many of us have a totally different view in life, some want more materialistic wealth, while some realize that the true goal os happiness.

When I get there, I will share my success with you and to me the biggest wealth of all shall be the day that I see my children go their own paths in life and that we are all safe and sound in life as far as the basic materialistic things go.

The great thing about this is that I know it can be done, I have seen others do it, it really isn't an issue, just takes a lot of perseverance and loyalty towards the set goals.
Along the way I know that I am achieving happiness and as such am spreading an ora of happiness around me.

Enough about this now..... have shared more in this post than what an entire book could write about the topic or my life story.

Have a good one!

Cheers.
