Living in the Forest

What is abundance and what is rich? For instance, I thought being rich was a more sustainable kind of lifestyle. You can have all the things you need in life because of the power of money. Material things, delicious food and how people treat you. Of course, there is nothing you can not have thanks to money. However, not all the things in life can be bought by money. The true people, the true happiness and the healthy lifestyle that nature could give.

Indeed, living in the city is the best place for opportunity seekers. Job offers and maybe a place where you'll start to step toward a new dream. So when you reach that dream, will it be an ideal life this time? But what is an ideal one, like I mentioned to be rich or maybe a poor one but abundant in what we call, "this is Life?"

I'm lost. Should the life of someone be rich or just a simple one? We all know how money is important but if we'd try to understand. Money is not the one we should focus on in living. There are ways to deal with life, even so, no matter what kind of life you are having. Living a life is about acceptance and satisfaction.

There's a house not far from ours. It's a simple house, made from light materials and just a small one. It's located where the trees and plants surround it. No water supply in that house but there's a spring where water can be fetched. Obviously, an old lifestyle like before when technology was nowhere to be found.

This may look like a hard life but if I were to ask; I would say it was a nice one. Imagine, when you wake up, nature's blessing is everywhere. There's a vacant land where you can grow plants, whether it will be a flower or a vegetable. Both of them are fine but if you have vegetables it's much better because you can have food.

I've been passing by this house, and next to it is this small garden. Eggplants, lady's fingers and sweet potato crops are there. Even with these few vegetable plants, I could tell it's helpful. Not just filling a hungry stomach but also a wounded mind. It helps someone to give mind at peace through gardening.

Life is just about how you treat it and understand it. Money is just a tool but not the one that should rule us over. We, human beings should be able to comprehend that living is not just having a bigger amount of money to get everything. Life is determined by our perspective and approach. While money is a useful resource, it should not dictate our lives. We must recognize that true fulfillment does not come from wealth alone. Despite life's challenges, happiness is attainable when we embrace its journey. Struggles are inevitable, but they contribute to our satisfaction and growth. Life is hard but you can still be happy from it if you are willing to acknowledge the path of life. There is a hard one and there is one. If it's only an easy one we cannot tell how we will be satisfied with a simple achievement in life.

Thank you for reading

This was the successful distribution of school supplies at Anislagon Elementary School.

This was my previous post about asking for support for school supplies.

Well said bruh. I'm glad to read that you have a good understanding of the importance of money in our lives. Many people, including well educated folks, just don't seem to get it. !PIZZA 🍕
