Money Matters : Is It Only Money That Matters?
Two thousand years ago Jesus commented in Bible "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”. In the wild goose chase after money matters, man becomes so self- engrossed and materialistic that he loses higher human aspirations and spirituality.
What can money do? We are getting obsessed by money and craving for more and more. As a result in our Mystic economy, rich are becoming richer, poor are becoming poorer. Therefore the social balance is gradually being disturbed. ‘With great power comes great responsibility ’The wealthy people should try to put the society in right order by stretching their helping hands to the needy for financial help and support. So money matters.
In our desperation to gain money we often ignore our family, friends and acquaintances. In some cases we don’t even hesitate to sacrifice our moral and ethical values. Competition and Frenzy often mislead us to commit fatal sins. We end up leading a doomed life of desolation and frustration. Money can bring material benefits but often at the cost of Mystic peace and serenity.

- Money can buy clock not TIME.
- Money can see a doctor, but not good HEALTH.

Now that you have seen what money can do, it is not money that only matters. So next time while we are step into our royal luxurious mansion, or fawning over our exotic cars or buying million dollar jewelry for our lavish wardrobe, we must think once about the millions of poor people who may not be able to purchase their day’s meal the very same day.
