Money cannot buy happiness and love
It is true that money cannot buy happiness and love. There are many things that money will never be able to buy. Parents think that they can buy the love of their children by showering the child with expensive gifts and presents. The parents spend a lot of time at work, and do not have the time to spend with the children.
Money can help relieve people of guilt when it comes to not doing enough for the people who are close to them. They have very little time to go out and lend a hand to the average man on the street. They will use money as a substitute for time that can be spend, and love that can be given. People are very fond of doing things like this, and it just sets them apart from others.
Happiness and love are two things that money will never be able to be a substitute for. A man can have money but he will never be able to be happy, and the money could drive people away from him. People could only truly love a soul that they find to be true, and not full of false hopes. Money can make a person hard and unlovable. On the other hand money is not all evil. There is nothing wrong with being a little ambitious, and loving life. There are many people in the world who have money but are content and happy. They have managed to find true happiness, and have also found love. This is the reason why many people are seen as ''have it alls''.
Money is not evil, and a barrier towards love and happiness, but a person with a lot of money will never be able to buy love and happiness. These are the birthright of the soul, and even a poor man can be blessed with both these priceless gifts. Watching a child take those first steps or hearing a child say something like 'I love you', is just priceless. When a loved one passes away no amount of money in all the world can buy the love or bring that person back.
It is a proven fact that money cannot buy happiness or love. Money is a vehicle that we trade in, and many people feel very proud to be rich, but their money has limitations, and cannot buy everything that their heart desires.
