Danger of wealth

I remember when we were all growing up
We used to share almost everything
Even in plights we would share
We’d do things in unity as a community

As I grow older I experience the difference
The differences we once shared as kidz
We had dreams, we all wanted to be rich one day
And God has blessed us with our wishes
Some of us are living their dreamz

The danger of wealth prevails though
Wealth has made us self-reliant
Self sufficient
Self-contained
It has made us isolated

We once shared public transport
We were the community
Together life was good
But when we are wealth we become separated from others

Wealth evokes pride
It closes gates to the poor
In a way that we worry about luxury
And not about helping others to realize their potential too
The gap between the two (rich and poor) accumulates

The danger of wealth is evil
Its makes us selfish
We become addicted to a number of things
We find it hard to live with less
We long for more and more
We neglect the sufferings in the street

True wealth lies in your soul
It’s not in monitory value
But the love and respect we share with others
Not only with ourselves but others
It’s about making a difference in ones life too
God be with you!!!!!!
