The Illusion of Wealth: When Possessions Replace the Soul



What is material worth? Luxuries. Wealth. Financial Success. 

Why is there such high worth on monetary wealth? 

We are systemically dependent on it. 

Our homes filled with objects/possessions holding no true value.

We equate happiness with a purchase. 

We distract ourselves from our decaying matter and feed into 

the gluttonous corporations peddling products in excess.

Buy this!  Brand new! New Release!

Refresh your mind and reward yourself with matter!

But does it truly bring happiness? 

When the mind goes and the soul is lost, we look to our possessions as clutter. 

A mound of useless artifacts collecting dust due to our inner spiritual neglect.  

Matter becomes worthless. 

We spend without thinking on the most trivial things. 

Telling ourselves that we deserve it. 

We leave a footprint not of sustainability 

But of greed….

Matter is dead. We are not.

The pursuit of happiness via the means of wealth 

Leads us to the death of ourselves. 

Experiences, Memories, Reflections 

Love, Compassion and Empathy.

Are worth more than gold.
