Find True Wealth

“Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor.” – Benjamin Franklin

On one side of town, a man is surrounded by luxury. He has access to the finest things in life. Expensive cars, a large home, and more possessions than he could ever truly need. Yet somehow, none of it feels like enough. The diamonds don’t shine bright enough. The car doesn’t feel fast enough. The house doesn’t feel big enough. And when he lies down at night, there is no peace. No satisfaction. No happiness.

On the other side of town, another man lives a very different life. His hands are worn from a long day of labor. His home is small. His meals are simple. But when he sits down to eat, he smiles. When he walks through his home, he smiles. And when he goes to bed, he does so with a sense of peace.

If you were to look at these two men side by side, it wouldn’t take long to identify who is truly rich.
