An Essence of Being Rich

I May Be Poor; But Rich on Things Money Can't Buy: People loved me, for I have True Friends Who Believed On My Cause, Not For who I am and For What I can Offer; I Have A Loving Wife and Good Sons, Who Stood By My Side, United On A Simple Abode, Struggling But Enduring The Tests Of Life, Not Causing Maladies To Our Fellow Beings; I have a Strong Relation With God, Always Reaching Out in Prayers, for Guidance, Being Remorseful of My Sins And Striving to Do What is Right for His Church; and, I have Peace of mind with Proud Stature; Walking Tall On Streets and Dark Alleys Without Fear and Anxiety, For Although A Sinner I am, I Enjoy the Luxury of A Guilt-Free Conscience. I Am Poor, But Happy and Contented On An Enduring Simplicity of Life, By Destiny and Personal Choice.
