Can Money Buy Love
Can money buy love?
Though money answers all things but not like love
Yet most have sold their soul for cash
And their conscience because of money
They have ensnared their Will with their words
Now they regret how imprisoned they are
Because of money that is perishable
What can money do? What can money buy?
Can money buy love? Can money buy emotions?
Can money buy your words? Can money buy your attitude?
What do we spend in relationship: money or emotion?
We know money answers most things…but
How well do you spend your money or emotion?
How well do you spend your time and attitude?
God spends people, people spend money
God create people, people create money
And money make the world go round as
People create money through their emotion
What can money do...?
Though it could bargain for relationship…
Pay for facial makeups
Pay for your wardrobe with latest clothes and shoe
From your sunglasses to your wrist watch
It can be used as a tool to entice someone into relationship
It could be spent at a date for lunch or dinner
It could be spent for organizing picnics and party with friends
For attending cinema outings and other social event
It’s cool when one loads the currency in the wallet
But it is not worth the emotions to be spent in relationship.
In relationship we spend emotion
And money can not quantify it
Not the money you give
Can heal the pain of a love-starved woman
Or bring love to the heart of a neglected Child
Though it could purchase and acquire earthly and perishable gift
Purchase the latest Car, buy the most expensive Italian furniture,
Shop for the latest outfit and clothing, spend for organizing your wedding
And build a comfortable mansion with terrace marble decoration
Pay children’s bill, put food on the table, pay children school fee,
Use to buy shares and bonds, stocks and treasury bills
Save in the bank accounts and use to pay emergency bills
Use for earthly pleasure, spend on celebration and anniversary,
Use to acquire knowledge, use to buy casket and for burial ceremony
But cannot Price over Eternal and imperishable gift,
Those who enslave their soul because of money are those
Who think money can pay for God’s freely gift- love
Forgiveness, Peace, Joy, Self-control, Honesty, Patient
And these virtues are the essential ingredient in relationships?
Can money pay for love? Can money buy forgiveness?
What is the value you place on money?
Since we cannot deny the indispensable reality of the people we love
