You buy a car for transport, not to live at the gas station. Likewise, you earn money to access essentials, not to live at the shopping mall.
Fortune without love is sheer curse,
For life’s true blessing is love alone.
Live to love and love to live,
With this as motto all good is honed.
They say you can’t live on love alone,
And indeed it’s true to its factual core.
But green of dollar without green of heart,
Grows on us like toxic mold.
Too much of dollar can kill a person,
Just like too little causes starvation.
Use money like you use your car,
To go places, not to live at the gas station.
Put love and life above all else.
You’ll know what’s sense, what’s nonsense.
