I reached the pinnacle of success in the world. In others' eyes, my life is an epitome of success.
However, aside from work, l have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that lam accustomed to.
At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, l realize that all the recognition and wealth that l took so much pride, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death.
In the darkness, l look at the geen lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sound, l feel the breath of Angel of death drawing close.
Now l know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth........
Should be something that is important:
Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days...
Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted belng, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone's heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth.
Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands.
What is the most expensive bed in the world ? -"Sick bed"...... You can employ someone to drive the car for you. make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost - " Life".
Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends.......
Treat yourself well. Cherish others.
