Life That We Want

Me and my aunt was having this conversation in the car the other day. She was more like talking to herself but somehow she decided to make this thought available to me.

"What is it that we are here for? MONEY, everyone is working badly to make a life."

I replied, "Well not quite, I think. Money is meant to make a living, but it does not make life".

We yearn for money because we need to satisfy our living, which is piled up mostly with things we want than we need.

"EASY LIFE" perhaps is the term we commonly use these days.

While there are still many poor people having bad times putting food on the table; the rich are heart aching on their shrunk wealth over the lost on investment (which means they are still having huge amount of money) and the middle class people chased by the killing credits (by overspending the future money).

What is it that people here for? PAYING.

So if we make this an equation, saying:
Living = Money
Life = Paying Money
thus Living Life = Money Paying Money

Guess my aunt is right about the definition of LIFE.

But, I'd say that it is not applicable to the total definition of LIFE because it is only "the life that most people want to live / choose to live".

So, if we want/choose a life built with satisfaction through tangible achievements, we ought to make it clear to our mind because it is after all OUR CHOICE.

We make our choice and responsible for it.

Don't you think so?
