<\/p>\n
I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In some others’ eyes, my life is the\u00a0 epitome of success. However, aside from work.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I have little joy.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the end, my wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At this moment, lying on my bed and recalling my life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of my death.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You can employ someone to drive the car for you or make money for you but you cannot have someone bear your sickness for you.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Material things lost can be found or replaced.<\/p>\n
But there is one thing that can never be found when it’s lost – Life.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Whichever stage in life you are in right now, with time, you will face the day when the curtain comes down.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Treasure love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Treat yourself well and cherish others.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As we grow older, and hopefully wiser, we realize that a $300 or a $30 watch both tell the same\u00a0 time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You will realize that your true inner happiness does not come from the material things of this world.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Whether you fly first class or economy, if the plane goes down – you go down with it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Therefore, I hope you realize, when you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with, have sing songs with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and earth, that is true happiness!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Don’t educate your children to be rich.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Educate them to be happy.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So when they grow up they will know the value of things and not the price.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Eat your food as your medicine, otherwise you have to eat medicine as your food.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The One who loves you will never leave you for another because, even if there are 100 reasons to give up, he or she will find a reason to hold on.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There is a big\u00a0 difference between a human being and being human.<\/p>\n
Only a few really understand it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You are loved when you are born.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You will be loved when you die.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In between, you have to manage!<\/p>\n
