Evil money

Money isn't the root to all evil, it IS the evil. It will make someone forget what scruples are, what love is and it screws up the damn hierarchy of importance.  If you ask me what sustains me,  I will say hope, love, relationships and then money.  When you go messing around with the natural order of the cosmos and start letting the money motivate you, you can potentially (and often) lose the love and relationships that you have gained or built along the way or worse yet, miss out on it all together.

I understand the importance of money for sustenance and even nice things, I get it. But why, do some people allow money to dominate their lives, their conversations, and their relationships? It's paper that holds power. Paper shouldn't hold power. We slave for it, we bust ass for it, we sacrifice for it, but we don't do this for people that we love? What's wrong here??

If money had a thought process it would subscribe to the divide and conquer theory. It will divide people, nations, and families.  People will fight for money, but not fight for love. They will go to war often because of money and it's associated power, but not for injustice. (at least not in this country anyway!)

It puts a heavy heave of sadness on this poor little rich soul to know people in my life that are like this.

Truth be Told:  If I had a choice, I'd rather be noble without money, than powerful with it.
