What is wealth?
This is another thing that have been on my mind lately...
During my balik kampung at my grandma's house in Seremban, i managed to find a book about this, well it's just so happened while i was lepak2 in my aunts room.
This book is interesting by its definition of wealth. These are the wealth that the author( Ustaz Akhil Hayy)has said :
a) Our life
b) Time
c) Health
d) Energy
e) Mind
f) Lust
g) Physical
All these wealth is not permanent. They are not for eternity.The list are listed based on their priorities. The first and the most important one is life. You are given wth this period of life. It will ends one day. Reading this book makes me want to care and always improve my health more. Without good health, there is nothing. Without mind, energy and physical, we can't acquire the hidden wealth(money). Lust is not just "that" lust because lust is more than one type.Lust is what we want. Lust to get rich, to buy things and splurge, etc.
In this materialistic world, there are many influences that make us think that wealth is by having more money and we pursuing money without appreciating more of the wealth that are given to us since the day we are born on earth.
I think if everyone knows or realizes these facts often, greedy or self-interest in getting rich will never be in our heart.
We realize that these wealth are not something that we own forever.
