Money Doesn't buy you Happiness
I despise this phrase
it boils my innards, kills my chromosomes, and makes me wretch
A phrase that somehow means to devalue currency
Yet it itself is as worthless as those who find a meaning to it.
How could money ever possibly buy happiness?
Why would you ever expect me to believe such a foolish idea?
Of course it doesn't!
Nothing can buy Happiness!
Happiness is an abstract concept!
The only figure you can make of happiness is the one you idealize yourself.
Blind are those who fall into this deception of the upperclass.
"Money doesn't make me happy, it is a burden."
You may hear them cry out.
Yet I don't see them shedding tears when paying for their Rolls Royce.
People stare at me like a poor bastard
A sniveling goblin pinching for gold
Caricature with no other joy than making numbers rise.
That I never learned to be with others nor did I care for others
As if I could ever care about the well-being of you.
As if I too never had to slave for a day just to provide
As if I never saw people on the street begging.
As if I never kept myself with disagreeable tasks just to keep being wealthy.
I also work!
I also starve!
I gave everything I ever had to be wealthy!
Yet... I never gave up my humanity.
This was never to belittle those who are humble
I simply bring to light that others want you to remain humble.
For as long as you have humility you are a piece to be control
You are a cog in their machine, they need you to stay where you are.
Money does not buy happiness
Money is not happiness itself
Money is a means to an end and a basic form of trade.
A tool, A weapon, a cure
it is what the user wishes to make of it.
