What becomes the first that comes across our mind when we wake up every day? Most people give this answer. "Money". They mean that they have to think and work for money or any way to get more money. Is life really that hard? Perhaps it is. But perhaps not.There many people out there keep on saying not enough earnings for life. In fact, when daily necessities can be fulfilled, that should be enough for us to call happy. People keep on searching for more money and neglect many things in their life, like family relationship, caring friends around, until their spiritual life. Looking for the "never enough money" seems to be a kind of modern people "painful" lifestyle. Every minute, every second they keep on thinking of earning more. Some use "for family's sake" as reason. But they don't really know when they have fulfilled the family financial side, they should pay more attention to the relationship in family then.
Thinking of satisfying the greed will only bring more suffering. "Money" for life is only a part of the whole "scene" of life. There are many important aspect of life we should fulfill. Not only about money, but almost greed against anything, especially material life. One who can subdue the greed is great. And contentment is the real happiness.
The world has enough for everyone but couldn't enough to satisfy one man's greed.
