Gold Versus Satisfaction
Gold is great if you already have food in your belly, a warm bed and clean water.
It is no good if the world explodes and people are fighting over last can of corn.
No amount of gold can buy an extra hour with a relative who dies unexpectedly.
It cannot make you feel better, up lift you, cheer you up or hug you.
Gold understands his role in the pecking order; minion to King Satisfaction.
Satisfaction brings freedom, joy, excitement in the way of talents, and skills.
It means enthusiasm faith, love, due to us living our bliss, or enjoying our jobs.
Satisfaction is knowing you are loved.
A feeling you get when each day is fun to play out.
When you create music, a poem, or a painting,
you do not worry about gold, do you?
