Hello Steemians, I trust you all had a wonderful day. Tonight I think I should write about money. It is a topic of discussion everyone will be interested in because we all have a need for money at every point in time.
Money; A Necessary Evil
Money according to Wikipedia is any item or verifiable record that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts in a particular country or socio-economic context. Yes, money is needed for the payment of goods and services and several means of exchange has been considered in the payment of goods and services. Today I'm not diving into Economics since I don't have much knowledge on that.
Humans want are insatiable that you will always long for more after getting your previous want. In the bid to satisfy this ending wants, there is an unending need for the use of money. We all need money to satisfy our wants. The more money you have the more wants you can satisfy. With this, many people believe money is everything, they believe with money they can have it all.
Now the questions are;
Is money everything?
Is comfort dependent on money?
Is Money Everything?
Like a friend of mine will say "money is good and too much of it is better". Yes, money is definitely a must have as it is important in having a sound mind. Sound mind? Yes, sound mind. It is better to be in a rich position than poor and so is it a sin to be poor. I once wrote in one of my posts that we can't all be rich but I sometimes wish we can all be rich. I sometimes think of what the world will look like if we all have the same amount of money. This is not a topic of today as what I'm still trying to relay is the fact that money is a must have yet not everything.
People believe money is everything causing some people to search for money so desperately. Desperate enough to rob others of there hard earned money, desperate enough to defraud people, desperate enough to fill their coffers with money that belongs to the masses, desperate enough to take human lives just to amass wealth.
I tell you money isn't everything, I'm not disputing the fact that money can buy many things all I'm saying is it can't buy you health, peace of mind and neither can it buy you a lifetime of eternity. Money is good but it's not worth doing horrendous things just to get money. It is not worth destroying humanity for filling your coffers.
Now back to my second question;
Is Comfort Dependent On Money?
I will like to leave this question for you to answer. Hoping you will share your view in the comment section.
