Are We Just Gonna Keep Chasing Money Till We Die? .

in #life6 years ago

Everyday we wake up thinking of how to keep our finance going, so we can take care of ourselves and family.

.

Everyday we face the struggle to scale our business to the next level, we spend most of the time brainstorming and thinking of the next move.

.

Everyday we realize our expenses is eating up into our income, so we need to work more to increase our income.

.

Everyday we realized we’ve acquired a lot and we have to keep working to maintain it, so we just keep working.

.

We look at how far we’ve come thus far. Acquired less - we want to meet up.

.

Acquired enough - we still yearn for more.

.

The world looks like it’s revolving around money, and we are all chasing it.

.

From the time we were born, our parents has been chasing this money to see us through child care,

.

They’ve been chasing this money to put food on the table for us,

.

They’ve been chasing this money to push us through school, educate us and help us pursue a career.

.

We’ve grown and started to pursue this same money for ourselves and for our own family.

.

For this cause - many have trampled on their morals, honesty, conscience and did the unthinkable.

.

Many are in the pursuit for money, because they believe it’ll bring them happiness - which never comes.

.

The thirst and pursuit of money never ends.

.

So why not press the “pause button” in your life for a moment and look beyond just “money”.

.

Take a look around you and feel the things money can’t buy.

.

Instead of allowing the money to instill pride in you, why not be humble and show love to others?

.

Instead of striving everyday for the money, why not relax and enjoy those little things life has got to offer?

.

Instead of sabotaging your health, why not make out time to be in good shape as your health is your wealth. Money means nothing to a dying man!

.

Instead of trampling on your morals and doing the unthinkable for money, why not uphold these morals and have a good name which is far better than riches.

.

Instead of being always busy and ignoring those who care about you, why not take a break and make out time for them?

.

Sometimes, those who truly loves you don’t need your money- they just need your time.

.

Be happy for this moment, for this moment is your life.

.

While in this daunting quest for money, always remember you have a life to live.

Well, the old saying remains true. Money is not the problem but it the love of money which is the root of all evil.

Nice post dear

Very positive sentiments. The world we live in has made it impossible to ignore or forgo money because it buys us options, choices, opportunity and capability.

However, as you established above, it is important to maintain perspective, to not make the mistake of thinking work and money are the same thing. Some of the best things in life can be obtained without buying them.

Wow so much information to digest, understand and re-read.
