When you do things out of greed most of the time it will go wrong.
Even when the offer seems too good to be true, you chose to pick it up and continue on with it.
You end up facing serious consequences.
Losing money, losing a good friend or losing your family for greed.
When it comes to greed, everything that's associated to it seems to be negative.
But strangely even when everyone knows the negative consequences of being greedy, they still continue on being greedy and do things just for greed.
There are various forms of greed. For money, for affection, for love, for attention, for fame, for food, for almost everything that is measurable by quantity.
Siblings rivalry occurs when both kids fight for the attention and affection of the mother, very often they fight for attention and affection not because theirs mummy don't give it to them, but because they want more of it.
Relationships breakdown because one party hopes for the other to give them more care, affection, love and concern, again, not because the party didn't but because the other party wanted more of it out of greed.
People who intend to startup a business, even when they know that the deal provided is too good to be true, yet because of wanting to MaxiMise profits and make more money, decided to take the risk of sending the money overseas and the stocks didn't appear at all. This businessperson made a huge lost, just to earn a little more.
Men goes partying, drinking, womanizing, sleeping around, not because they don't love their wife or partners, but because they feel they needed something fresh, someone better, someone sexier, hotter, prettier to themselves, but in the end, not only will they lose their money, they are putting their relationship and marriage in a big risk. Just for more fun.
Women go on dating with various men even when they are in a relationship with a man, not because the man is not capable enough, not because she don't find him loving enough, it's because of influence from friends and media, it's because they have the mindset that they will eventually still be able to find someone more capable and richer than their current, because they needed more affection and attention, because only by having a capable partner, they will be able to be the winner in the circle of friends she's hanging out with,
Women become prostitutes, sugar babes and social escorts, not because they have no money for even a meal, not because they don't have the daily necessities that she should have, not because she doesn't have bags to carry her stuff to school, clothes to wear, it's because she wanted more than this, she long for her branded bags, branded apparels, branded shoes, luxurious cars and big houses.
Celebrities wannabes goes under the knife not because he or she is not attractive enough, it's because they want to look perfect, they want to stand out from the rest, they want to fit into the crude society when people judge you based on looks, they wanted more fame.
So all the above situations are shows that most of the time, people do things not because they really need it, but instead the do it because the want MORE of it, yes MORE, and the word that best describes all the scenarios is GREED.
But to be honest, greed brings you nothing but a broken self.
Siblings that fight and relationships worsen even till ten twenty years later, perfect relationship and marriage breakdown, losing yourselves and betraying your own perfect body that god gave to you, losing hard earned money just to get a little more profits, spend tons of money but yet got yourself a failed plastic surgery that you got to live with the entire rest of your life, all for GREED ?
Yes, a moment of greed a lifetime of regret.
It is not worth to lose so much just for a moment of greed, think before you act, learn to love live more. Life simplest pleasure ~~
