A Wish For Richness

It may sound foolish or even insane to have a wish for richness or fame, and it's perfectly normal and human to long for things we don't have; but it's morally wrong to use them against others...for one's greed and gain! That conviction comes from inside, uncovering the unclearness of doubt... without being afraid of answers so dark; faith seems worthless without a vision in the mind.. be persistent in seeking gold with an enormous risk, and many will try a thousand times until they find it! A small seed will grow into a rich harvest... sun-nurtured and rain-quencher before sunset, and all these things you desire are obtained through prayer; don't heed the cynic's advice: push forward with endless stride! A wish for richness has different motives, discard the unworthy ones, consider the good ones; curiousity and effort make people successful, 'till their empty basket is completely full! Never did I see believers struggle for food; it was given because they bow down to a true God! Real food comes from the fertile earth, those who eat it will not know early death; millions of people die from man-made diseases: cigarettes, drugs, alchool, and promiscuous sex; if these are to continue, there'll be no one left! Be considerate of others...don't do anything you don't want to be done to yourself; have the kindest heart overflowing with giving: never stop at anything, if someone laughs; your determination is the result of dedication: let all watch and envy you for your perception!
