You can't be rich

The title must have dragged you here to read this. You want to know why being rich is impossible in my opinion. Well, you're quite wrong. Being rich is not impossible in my opinion, but being "Rich" as defined by other people I meet, is impossible in my opinion. So let's first define this word "RICH".

MEANING OF "RICH":
Well the word "Rich", if searched in google will show you this - 
But I say this is quite not right. Well of course you won't listen to me over google ๐Ÿ™‚, so let's try to understand this. Rich means more. "The food is rich of nutrients" means the food has enough nutrients. Like this we often mean "Rich" as enough existence of anything in something or someone. 

NO ONE IS RICH:
Now the question arrives, "Why no one is rich?". Well it's not that, just that no one is JUST rich. If you have to be rich, you have to be rich of something. Every mother is rich of love for her offsprings. Every father is rich of wisdom for his family. India is rich of culture. All these examples prove that no one can be just rich, you have to be rich of something. 

BEING RICH OF ...:
So now the million dollar question is "What are you rich of?" Well this is an answer you have to find yourself. Being rich of something takes a lot of dedication towards your doings and your SELF-UNDERSTANING. You have to know your own core to know in which thing you have the most abundance. Is it love for someone or something? Is it patience? Is it faith or belief? Is it anger? What is the very thing which you are rich of, which you are constantly creating? Find it yourself.

WEALTHY v/s RICH:
Now you must be wondering that is it wrong to mean "Having more money" by saying "Being rich" ? Well, yes. Because you're being confused between being RICH and being WEALTHY. Having more money, secure your life after your days of income is over (mostly after retirement). Having more money also gives you freedom to enjoy your dreams and wishes while also fulfilling your necessities in life and also keeping your family happy. Now if we look at the definition of WEALTH, it goes like this - 
If you notice carefully, WEALTH doesn't differ greatly from the FORMAL definition of RICH. So why are we still using RICH as substitute of WEALTH. Rich is a superset of having more things. Wealth is a subset of RICH.
WHAT YOU SHOULD BE?
Now if I ask you what you should be, "RICH" or "WEALTHY"? Can you answer. I can. I am rich of many things which I found on my not so long journey of life. Among those are some important things, "Love", "Faith", "Power to rely on someone", "Confidence". These things were developed inside me, some knowingly, aome unknowingly. Some from the day one, some from the day I started exploring myself and my surroundings. Some were the effects of my parents' parenting skills, some were the hurdles of life which I stumbled upon and some of the wisdom I observed from successful people. So being rich of something doesn't necessarily require many things, just exploring yourself from your core and being self - observant. When you know yourself and what you're capable of, it's aatter of time to find out what you're rich of. 

          So don't I wanna be wealthy? Hell yeah I want๐Ÿ™„. Who doesn't want money๐ŸŒš? But if don't know ehat you're rich of, you will never find peace of mind even if you're extremely wealthy. So find yourself before find money. After that you can find money in the most enjoyable way possible for you, else you will find yourself working for money rather than money working for you. Well that's a topic for another blog๐Ÿ˜‰.

Stay healthy and stay rich ๐Ÿ‘€...of something of course ๐Ÿ˜‚.
