Words of wisdom about money are not everything, can serve as a reminder for Kati, that happiness cannot only be achieved with money.
Money is an object that is needed by many people. In working, everyone's goal is of course to earn money.
Besides being valuable for making purchases, money can also measure a person's social level. Those who have a lot of money sometimes get a special place in the eyes of many people.
As the pollution got bigger, the forests got more and more deforested. The river runs dry. Wars occur frequently, everything is gone and people find it increasingly difficult to eat. They realize that money is not everything.
Once Upon a time Money
The Malay proverb says something like this ..
"Leaves from Esculentum Diplassium Ulam Centella Asiatica eat to make it vegetables. Time to the tire is useless, just the virtue in combined"
money idr 1000a which is lower value and idr 100.000 higher, made from the same paper and circulated by the bank. When printed, they were together, but separated at the bank and circulated in the community.
However, 4 Months Later they are accidentally met in a young man's wallet, let's call her name jeo...
So this money has a dialogue and tells:
The money which is worth more than idr 100,000 asks, for the smaller one, idr 1000. Why is your body so worn, dirty and smells fishy?
Idr 1000 answered; "Because at that time I just walked out of the bank, continued into the hands of a poor, laborer, from him then I moved into the hands of fishermen, then to fish sellers and to beggars." that's my story.
Then idr 1000 asks idr 100,000; "Why are you new, neat and still clean?"
Idr 100,000 answered; "Because at that time I just walked out of the bank, continued to be greeted by beautiful women, and even in expensive restaurants, in the complexes of luxury buyers and also star hotels and my presence was always guarded and not out of my wallet."
Then idr 1000 asked again; "Have you ever been to a place of worship?"
Idr 100,000 answered; "Has never been"
The Idr 1000 said again; "You know that even though I am only worth idr 1000, but I am always in all places of virtue, and in the hands of orphans and needy children. Even because of that I give thanks to God.
I am not seen as a value, but a benefit. "Then cry for 100,000 because it feels big, great, but not very useful so far.
Hopefully this story is useful for all of us.
Conclusion:
For collective reflection ... our lives should not be arrogant and selfish with wealth and rank ... because sometimes something we think is despicable is better and is praised by society.
If read from idr 100.000 set, it will read in English: The Source of the Problem.
