Money is not everything

Money is not everything but we have to admit, it is money that makes things move. Maybe before when good and commodities are not dependent on currency, you can just pick the fruits and vegetables from your backyard, money seems to be not important, but nowadays, it isn't the case. Because money really moves us, every move we do require resources. When we send our children to school, we need money for their allowance, when the monthly bills come, we need money to pay for our energy consumption, internet, phone and water. We buy clothes with our money. We build our homes with money. Every human activity now, even as big as Obama's candidacy and campaigns, will require money. We earn money hard. People do earn by making their hands tired and bulged. On one hand, there are some people who does not need to work anymore. They are very lucky people who get the food they eat from other people's hard work. This fact is not that ugly of course, because in our world, the fittest only survives.

There are easy ways to earn money. Depending on what kind of people we are. I for example is not so physically strong hence I choose to work and earn by using my head. Some people need to use their physical strength to earn. Some just need money itself to make things propel and the mill of money will rotate. They are the Ayala's of the Philippines and the like of Bill Gates who earn now without doing much. People do the work for them. They are lucky, but we're not sure if blessed. For all we think, these people also have the same problems as ours. For example, I may have a huge debt in banks; matter of fact-ly, the rich also have them. The gravity of the situation depends on how we perceive things.

On a keynote, money is not everything. There are more important aspects than it like our faith in God, our family, our girlfriend or boyfriend, or our sons and daughters. It's good to know that you are earning money for people you love. Because without them, money must be worthless.
