Money or Happiness.......
Has anyone ever asked you that question?
The question has come up to me... Indirectly... but I got to thinking... Possibly it was an irrational decision when I actually thought about it... cause I was feeling a little depressed at the time of thought... But when I thought about it.... It didn't really seem all that irrational at all... it actually made sense....
I came to the decision that I'd really take money over happiness...
People in general almost always say happiness... without putting a single thought into it... because naturally everyone wants to be "HAPPY"
The other general portion... who say they rather have money... are usually people who are business motivated... And have no time for the proverbial "Happiness"... cause "making" money makes them "Happy"...
Then there's me... and my thought that destroys everyones bubble...
I Believe... that Money CAN Buy Happiness... and that "Making" money doesn't really make you "Happy"... Yeah sure you could be doing something you like that pays you money... But's let's face it... NO ONE Really LOVES their job that much... Deep within... there's still the piece of your mind that says " WHY do I do this everyday?... Why Do I even Bother?... blah blah blah" There IS a difference between "Enjoyment" and "Happiness"...
The reason I came to the conclusion that I would take Money over being eternally happy is... because EVERYTHING takes MONEY... I don't care what you say EVERYTHING TAKES MONEY... I know you're probably thinking... "Oh... but... money doesn't buy you Love... Money is the Root of all evil... blah blah blah".... WRONG... Money is the ROOT of EVERYTHING!... EVILNESS, HAPPINESS, LOVE, LIFE... All rooted by MONEY...
All Evil: Yes, People with lesser money or in Despirate NEED of money... Will do ANYTHING do have MORE of it... it could be the last resort, Unmorallistic, and the Irrational things known to man... but if you think about it... Is Money really the evilness? or is it MAN's Neverending Persuit of "Happiness"?
Happiness, Love, and Life: No... Happiness, Love, And Life DOESN'T GROW ON TREES! No matter how much you will argue about this with me... Plain and simple... MONEY Turns the world... The only thing that's free in this world is knowledge and wisdom...
Money buys happiness... You just need to know how to spend it... Hell... spending it... makes people happy... if you do it correctly... happiness comes in all shapes and sizes...
Just think of all the things that make you HAPPY...
If you buy something MATERIALISTIC... It brings TEMPORARY Happiness...
If you buy Something THOUGHTFUL... it contributes to ETERNAL Happiness...
If you buy the SUPPLIES... You can Create Happiness from the HEART....
If you buy the TICKETS... You can Experience Happiness in a RARE way
HAPPINESS doesn't come without a price...
Money Doesn't make you A Sweetie...
Buying Flowers Does
Buying Dinner Does
Buying The Construction Paper to make the Valentines Day Card DOES
Buying The Computer to Photoshop your Valentines Day Card DOES
Wisely Spent Money MAKES you A Sweetie... Then the rest is up to your personality...
I think you get the picture... Sometimes people gotta think REAL... granted... you don't need TONS of money to be happy... but it still takes just a little bit... to keep you in that flow called life...
