Some people thrive on material possessions. They want and want of many things, no matter how to gain it or why it is even needed. Many people obsess over money, whether they are using others to get it, or slaving away at a job they hate in order to feel that thrill on payday. They are at a constant state of wanting. They obsess over shoes, clothes, jewelry, cars, makeup, home goods, and other selfish and irrelevant possessions. They put their many needs in front of and foremost over the ones around them, the ones they love, friends and even family. Many women are in search of someone to take care of them, to financially support their unbalanced lives with money and a sense of security. Many women view someone to take care of them as their crutch, to hold them up as they drag themselves around depending on others. Their values and emotional perspectives are way off the chart. There are parts of their emotional being that is replaced by material wants. They lose the understanding of what is really important, more important they any material object or possession.
Love.
I suppose that is how I know I am stitched from a finer cloth. I have a completely different view on the value of love over money, of what is important and what is not. There are no objects,possessions or material items that can be bought that will ever come close to replacing the value and worth of a loving heart and the connection of souls. Without a doubt, love is the most expensive treasure I have ever experienced,rich or poor, in all my life.
Love is priceless.
Money comes and goes, as well as those people who are forever seeking it. But Love, real Love, lasts through the pennies and dollars. Sure money can buy you a car or some more clothes or even that fancy piece of jewelry you've had your eye on, but to me those things could never compare to the riches a truly loving heart can bring and give.
It's beyond incredible.
I've never been a woman to obsess over shoes or clothes or most of the superficial objects many woman crave. I've never viewed my values or character based off money or how much I can own or take. I've never wanted beyond a reason.
But when I step back and look at my life, I am amazed at how rich I truly am. My heart bursts with the abundance of beautiful things that the foundation my life is built of. The blessings in my life cannot be found in any store or shoved into any wallet.
When I look at the love I have been blessed to hold in my heart and the love that is accepted and cherished in the hearts of the ones I love, I feel that I am truly the richest person in the whole world ♥
