For the past few days, there is this one line that has been hovering over my mind and so I decided to pen down some thoughts. I even had it posted on our dear Fb and had some of my friends share some really wonderful thoughts about this one line. So this is basically a consolidation of all those beautiful views with some of my thoughts here and there.
Richness is not about money...Sure it is not. I think we all are, well at least most of us lucky ones are - Born Rich. God bestows equally to each of us, everything we will ever need to make ourselves and this world better . He gives us the power of vision to marvel at His beautiful colorful creations all around us; the power of touch to heal and get healed. He gives us a beautiful mind to think and imagine and create new wonderful thoughts and creations. He gives us all a kind heart to feel and love and empathize with all the lovely creatures around us. We all are born with and equally possess and inherit the beautiful nature - the warm sun, the twinkling stars, the chirping birds, the blooming flowers.
And after that we become richer by the way we spend these gifts - the power of our senses, the strength of our mental faculties, the energies of our healthy body, the love of our touching hearts and every bit of the ever so passing time. And so at the end, our richness and our worth is calculated not by the number of bills we own but by the number of memories we created with our friends and families - the kind that make us laugh and cry all at the same time; by the number of positive traits that we developed in our character; by the number of times we extended a helping hand to anyone in need; by the number of times we hugged and loved and healed; by the number of beautiful sceneries we enjoyed even if it was a rainbow after a sunny rain; by the number of dreams we built and fulfilled; by the number of moments we lived completely; by what we built of us with what we had.
Richness is not about money... Richness cannot be about money because the BEST things in life are FREE...
