People say “money is the
root of all evil”, it brings out the worst in people, destroy friendships and
relationships. We tend to want more than what we have, so we are trying to
multiply our money, whatever it takes.

If we get to think of it,
before money was invented, people were busy to engage countertrade. Everybody
exchanged their goods, depending on what they need and the ordinary people did
not live in the lap of luxury. BUT was this world a more peaceful and less
ill-conditioned place than the world today?
Clearly it was not. We
should rather ask ourselves if it is not our common human character trade of
never being satisfied that is the root of all evil! If we had the ability to
have a healthy relationship with money, if it was not in the highest priority position
as it is, it could not be the root of all evil.
I do not disagree that money
controls everything around us BUT it is up to us to handle it responsibly, not
to let it destroy our relationships, not to make it the main priority and not
to let it take control of our life.
