Sunday thoughts and renewal of the spirit. Desirable pearls - "Chinese wisdom"- {PART10}
Today I will present to you Chinese wisdom, very well known but can be forgotten or not heard.
Money is treacherous and can outwit the greedy ones and the mad at them. I do not say they are not important but they should not stand above the values listed below !!!
but not the family warmth,
You can buy a comfortable bed
but not a quiet sleep.
You can buy expensive watch
but not the time.
You can buy an interesting book
but do not the knowledge.
You can buy a high position
but no respect.
You can pay the doctor
but do not buy health.
You can buy yourself a life
but not the soul.
You can buy yourself sex
but not love
Hope you liked it !!! Thank you for reading my post and support. Follow my link below to see my posts.

Very wise words indeed@margaretwise!
Reminds me of the words of Hazrat Inayat Khan About how to live in the world and yet to keep above it
"To become cold from the coldness of the world is weakness, to become broken by the hardness of the world is feebleness, but to live in the world and yet to keep above it is like walking on the water. "
Wonderful words. You are so right that Chinese wisdom it reminds you about your words. Delightful :)
Thank you, I'm so happy you see it too!
Yep the value of things.

I feel the same way I am disabled therefore I'm poor but I'm rich in everything you mentioned, so I'm really rich❤️I loved every word you said so true
So you are not poor my darling if you follow all of those wisdoms you are very rich inside and it is the most valuable treasure You can ever imagine ;)))
All the best my smart friend. God loves you they way you are. Lot's of kisses and hugs :)))
even after all those things, money is important to live a life.
