Penniless

As long as profit is the master of one's heart penniless would love remain!

Love can be spread to the true penniless through money though. Wouldn't you agree? It would take a lot of money to 'save' situations, problems around the world etc. In creating the profit so it thus could be given back to the Universe, I get what you are saying, profit could become the 'Master'One must be careful not to let greed stray one from one's "true path'. Brilliant as always dearest friend....Maria xxx

Hi Demetrius, another excellent Monoku from your pen, the words are so true. Given the choice, love or money, call me a fool, money. We can hope that in the future Love shall win through. Have a wonderful Monday....Mike.

How true Demetrios, greed can blind us to everything, worth remembering we enter life with nothing and go out the same way. Tom
