You are wealthy.
Who taught us that wealth is only measured through currency?
Wealth is not a large number in a bank account.
The second you were you born into this world you were already born as the wealthiest person. You were given the wealth of life.
You were given a heart to love
a brain to think
eyes to see
hands to hold
arms to hug
feet to run
lips to kiss
You were given a chance to breath when others could not even get the chance at life.
& yes of course, not everyone was blessed to be born with everything..
There will always be defects & imperfections but they should not be seen as a negative.
Everyone who is/was alive was given to opportunity to live.
We are alive.
We are living.
We are breathing.
You are reading this
& for that I thank you.
But you should thank life for choosing you.
Every second that passes by cannot be taken back.
Every second is not promised & too often we take that for granted.
Look around.
Think of your family.
Think of your friends.
Think of you & how your heart is beating.
How your body is breathing.
How your brain is processing these words that are only a combination of letters but yet somehow our beautiful minds can comprehend.
Think of every happy moment.
Think of every sad moment & acknowledge it but let it go because that is in the past.
Think about the roof over your head.
Think about the food you eat.
Think about the places your feet have taken you.
Think about the pillow your head lies on every night where your mind can dream.
Think about the clothes you wear.
The soft blankets that keep you warm.
Think about your favorite song.
Think about your favorite drink.
Your favorite person.
Your favorite place.
Now think about you.
Think about how incredible you are.
Think about the fact that there is no one else like you.
Think about love & how you can spread that more each day.
Or how you are capable of doing anything.
You see, wealth is not an object.
Wealth is not a number.
Wealth is not an accessory.
So then what is wealth?
The opportunity to live & love life.
