On the subject of money..

I came upon a brilliant song in this beginner's piano music book when I started learning a couple of years back. It has a very kiddie melody but it's its lyrics that I want to talk about.

The name of the song is called "Money Isn't Everything". It's true. It's a line we hear everyone bring up all the time, whilst acting all self-righteous. Money isn't everything. I thought the same way too for a while until I read the following:


"
Money isn't everything,
Money can't make you a king,
Money cannot bring success,
Money can't buy happiness.

But of one thing I am sure,
Money doesn't make you poor,
Money doesn't make you sad,
Money can't be all that bad!

"


Truer words have never been spoken..
