I'm sure a lot of people will read this article and think I'm insane. I don't give a damn. In this post, I will discuss what I believe to be the most crucial aspects of life: health and happiness.
All of this is about money, according to my numerous friends:
What kind of vehicle are you driving?
What is the cost of your home?
How much money do you make?
What is the price of your suit?
This year, where are you going on vacation?
All of this bores me, and I believe it is depressing. They appear to be in a competition and are very concerned with money.
I'll give you an example of a friend like this, who goes by the name of John. He never talked about anything else and was always looking for quick money schemes. He's also going to a lottery meeting with around fifty other people. Each member contributes around ten pounds per week. On Saturday nights, John enjoys socializing with others, but he soon begins to bite during the lottery draw. He'll go into the bathroom and call his girlfriend after a few minutes. He took a little pen and a piece of toilet paper with his numbers on it. After his fiancée informs him of the stolen numbers, John will spend around 20 minutes double-checking his numbers and then double-checking to see if he has any. There are no winning lines.
You eventually return to the squad that appears to be the most determined (except for me) to find out how much money you have gained or lost. You've only won a modest sum of money so far, but you're confident that one day you'll be a millionaire. He'll then start talking about the lottery and asking folks what they'll buy if they win. At this point, I'm bored and wishing I could have stayed at home and watched football instead.
Health and happiness are the two most important things in my life. These are two things that money will never be able to buy. My father became ill a few years ago. She was in critical condition and had to stay in the hospital for almost five months. Because he was only 57 years old, his condition worried me. I was afraid, despite my best efforts to think and feel positively. I recall thinking that even if I gave those doctors all I had, they would still be unable to assist him. I was fatigued, but I also recognized that money was only paper.
Happiness is the same; I recall being 21 years old and wealthy, and being startled to be depressed at the same time. I was content even though I didn't have any money.
Is It True That Money Doesn't Make You Happy?
You have to accept that, based on your personal experiences and the world around you, there appears to be some truth in it.
Money cannot purchase happiness, it is a well-known and commonly held belief. But what if you don't have a lot of money? What if you're on a fixed income? What if you don't put forth enough effort to stay alive?
If this is the case, money will make you happy for a brief period of time. The biggest problem with being wealthy, whether one has amassed a fortune through time or has had a fortunate turn of circumstances that has enhanced one's life instantly, is that having enough money to cover all of life's essentials is insufficient. Anyone who is happy is always happy.
