The most common definition of money is:anything of value that serves as a (1) generally accepted medium of financial exchange, (2) legal tender for repayment of debt, (3) standard of value, (4) unit of accounting measure, and (5) means to save or store purchasing power.In common usage:Cash!!But in my case the definition is totally "out of the ordinary"!!
I am not really intersted in telling the merits of money.They are "copious", but there is one thing, that i think you all would agree on, of those myriad "merits", 99.99% are "OVER" materialistic!!In today's "money driven" world, the actual "moral" value of money has vanished.
Today we are judged mostly by our financial status, by what we have achieved rather than what we are, and that thing is totally incomprehensible to me!!
A small land in a big place is far more dear to us than a big place in a small heart!!
Today i am going to tell you about one of my thought that has kept me alive to this "covetous" life !!
I treat the "normal" human life as a question paper, even though we all hate it, there's no chance we can neglect it!!
Suppose a "normal" question paper has 5 questions of 20 marks each and the time to solve the paper is 3 hours..If a person knows all the questions very well but what he does, he spend about 2.5 hours in Q.1.He draw the lines, underline the important words and put mind blogging quotations, in short the examiner cannot give him any marks less than 20.But, he has just screwed up with the other 4 questions and also missed out the "requisite" query.Though he would get 20 marks in Q.1 but he would not score good or may even fail!!
That is how the life works.
It has 4 most important M's-
1-Materfamilias aka parents and family
2-Moral life
3-Money, to be precise "how to make money"
4-Marriage
These are those 4 questions that i think(at present,few others may add later), are the backbone of a "successful" life.And the first M is the "compulsory" question(for me atleast)!!
But, what we are doing is really threatening.We are only busy dealing, designing, caring, the third M..and doing that we are on the verge of "failing" the most important test!!My life experience tempts me to conclude that "jitna accha paisa nahi hona hai, utna accha paisa hona nahii hai"!!
What money has done is that it has made ourselves commit the most petrifying sins, killing, saying "cuss" things, neglecting our "inner self", and the list is an endless tail of terror!!
On my part, money is not gonna be the important question in my life, what i'v been trying to do in all these years of my life is to make a good balance between these 4 questions and in no way the compulsory question would be neglected for a "material".After all, it is not always about money and getting honey!!
Until next time, it is bye from my side, and this post is an ode to my grandfather, who died recently.Hope his soul rest in peace!!
Take Care!!!
