The Two Faces of a Coin

Head and tail, front and back, face and b_tt or some other names -- titles for the two faces of a coin. Two faces of a coin, like the two phases of life in reality. If there's the rich side, then there's the poor side. The good side and the bad side of life as well. People keep on reading and writing. People also keep on counting -- counting different things that are in front of us, including the negative elements and bad examples in life. And just like anything else that captures everybody's attention, whatever is in front of us is the most interesting of all... counting what's on our palm... like m & ms. Money in paper form is as good as a coin of great value to man. So, which side would you choose in a coin? Others say, we can choose the girdle or the middle. For all we know, the middle face of the coin only lies or stands either flat or upright. If you choose the flat position, it sits while the upright position stands and rolls. So what's the best thing to do with a coin... save it or use it? Like keeping it or spending it. The two faces of a coin will always be there forever. How you use each face is up to you? What is more interesting, you try to figure out which side is more benefiting. Then ask yourself again, benefit or comfort? Not everybody believes that money is the root of all evil. Money, in form of a coin, is helpful and beneficial to human wants; comforting to human needs Between wants and needs, life can be a mess or success. The two faces of a coin, like the left and right sides of life. Just pick and do what is right. Drop what is not right!
