Fair or not - The Rich & The Poor
Life, is it fair, or not? Well, supposingly, 11 out of 10 will say :" Life is SO unfair!"
Well, yeah, nothing's fair in this world for sure. But, it is sort of balanced in some ways. How? You see it everday in your real life, and also, in the television. What the hell am I talking about? Haaha~~ I'm kinda lost, not sure what I want to say!
So erm... Ok, like I was saying life is some sort of "fair" or, the better word "balanced" in some ways. What ways? Lets see, we have poor people and rich people right? Just ignore those in between-lar~~ Ok.. Poor people, they have no money, or they only have enough money for part of the family. But, although they are poor, but they live an easy going, happy life. Although not all poor citizens are happy with their lives, because they think that, they dont' have money, they don't have enough to live. Their needs and wishes aren't fulfilled. They wish they could be rich, as they think that money can solve every problems they have. Although they're poor, but they know, what does enough means. What is real happiness even though they don't have a single penny in their pocket. And they learn to survive, they learn to earn a better living and really really think before they use their money. Yes, some of the poor family have sorrows like, having a sick member.. Don't have money to see the doc... Etc etc... But still, what poor people have is: happiness, understanding of enough, know how to survive in this cruel world, and in some way, they have better health!
In a poor person's mind, they would imagine that those rich people live in a very very good life. They have all they want. They have happiness. They have their sucessful achievements. They have all the money they want, which can help them to solve their problems. But the poor do not know, that actually those rich people, aren't as happy as they imagined.
Rich people, what they have is wealth. Nothing more than that. Just wealth. Yes, they also have happiness and others that the poor have. And they have those which the poor don't have as well, as if they have everything! No. At the beginning of "wealth" it is somehow happy, because you have money, you can spend whatever or however you like. Having too much wealth is actually the starting of problems. How? Well, they're people trying to take it over from you... And maybe children are fighting over your money.. Yeah, all those that are on TV, ARE on real life. Is that happy? No. I actually think that, more money, more problems, more stress, less happiness. People with wealth, I call them people with sins. Hah~ WHY?? Rich people are just cursed with illnesses. There are many rich people around me, but almost every of them have sickness like, stress, heart problems, high blood pressure etc. And, money is NOT the solution. Even they have more money than the others, but money doesn't cure their pain. And, they have to think think and think while investing their money, their business. In their minds, they keep on thinking in which way can they earn even more? Have even more money? To maintain their wealth? Is that a happy thing? No. They have to calculate again and again, just because if they step one foot on the wrong road, they will just loose everything. By that time, their survival will be much worse than those who are poor, because they have to start all over again, getting themselves used to this so called bad, poor life. Where as the poor, already get used to it.
Like I said earlier, our life is somehow balanced. Just like I've mentioned, there're poor and rich. The poor don't have money, but they have happiness, health and less stress in some way, because they don't have to worry about losing money. The rich have all the wealth they have, but they lost happiness, health and more stress. Fair? Fair.

Just 2 make the "poor" people (like me) fell better, there's this saying or some sort.
At least, the poor has got hopes towards life (sorta). If they r not satisfied of their life, they can still can have hopse and imagine that IF I'M RICH, i can achieve this this and this. IF I'M RICH, i can have a better and happier life.
Whereas for the rich, if they are unhappy about what they have now, they have nothing to look forward to. Money is everything, and they already have it, so they can't have false hopes. (don't tell me that they actually hope that they r poor).
Well, that's that. Something crappy to share.
ykm.
