The Purpose Of Life: What leads us towards our True Purpose

Money

We have seen all the major factors that affect our path to purpose both positively and negatively, but there is also a major factor who only has a positive effect on our purpose, and that, is 'Money'.

Money was started mainly for trading and market purposes, but soon it took over to become one of the most important things in one's life. Who doesn't want more money? Everybody wants to have money you do, I do. In fact, money is something that gets rid of all the obstructions in our life. If we have money, it doesn't matter what race we belong to or what religion we belong to, if we have enough money, the society will not judge us on our behaviour, sure you'll hear things like "Oh, they are from that community..." but when you have enough money, that statement is usually followed by "but they are filthy rich so who cares?"

Money can give us everything we want, status, power almost everything, money can also get us respect, it will only be temporary, but respect is the one thing that all humans crave for.

There will be many people who tell you that money cannot buy everything, and that is true, but without money how can one survive? Where will we get food? How will we take care of your loved ones? How will we be able to provide for medication, water, electricity and so many basic things?

Money is the factor that changes everything, it is something that gives us a massive boost in our path to purpose, many of the factors like 'jealousy' also help us in earning more and more money, but many people fall in love with money because it can literally get you anything, what people do is that they start to believe that money is the only purpose in our lives, but it isn't, money can't buy you true love, money can't buy loyalty, money can't buy happiness, money can't buy the feeling of struggle and hard work.

The things we can get with money are all temporary things, we have definitely heard that the ones having money are actually the most troubled ones, and that is if the source where the money came from is really dark and bad. People in current times will do anything to earn money, and by that I mean 'anything', they are ready to step into the darkness to just earn money. Those 'dark' ways of earning money are really efficient and quick, but it is as the saying goes, "The one who rises quickly, falls with double the speed."

Doing hideous things to earn money is never an option, many people live in really bad conditions and they have no other choice, so they have to get into these things and when you hear the stories of these people, all you hear is "I had a really hard time coming out of it."

Having money also doesn't mean that we act like we own everything around us, one should always be kind to others and should follow the path of humanity.

"Should all of us earn money?"

A really obvious question, don't you think? Yes of course, all of us should or more like 'have to' earn money. There is no other choice.

"Can the ones with no money, achieve their purpose?"

Money is both a factor and a 'stage' in achieving our purpose, so with changing times money has also become a part of our purpose, so even if we do not have money, we will have to make money one way or the other. So, to achieve one's purpose in current times money is a need.

"Is earning money The Purpose of life?"

No, it certainly isn't, but it could be with some people. In the human species, each individual has its own purpose, so yes, earning money could be the purpose of 'some' people.

Money is certainly something that matters a lot in current times, may people don't like the concept of money, but money acts as a unit of balance.

What if there the concept of money didn't exist? Would there be no wars? Would there be no lost lives? Would the social hierarchy be abolished? Would there be peace all over?

One can only imagine.
