True relationships are never based on money , just love
Snickers!
The best happiness comes from family
This past week we read the essay called, “On the Want of
Money,” written by William Hazlitt. He begins his essay with, “Literally and
truly, one cannot get well in the world without money.” I found this statement
to be very true. Of course there are difficult ways to survive without money,
but many of the people who do are homeless, starving, and miserable. Everybody
has their own viewpoint on money, but I am one who believes that money can buy
happiness, but only to a certain extent. We had to buy my dog Snickers, and he
brings me happiness every single day! When donating items you had to buy, you
have the opportunity to help people at homeless shelters, unwanted children, or
struggling families to be very happy. A simple toy from the dollar store can
make any little abused toddler feel cheerful again. Also many people enjoy
playing sports or musical instruments. Equipment, instruments, and proper
uniforms aren't free. We have to put money towards what we love. Another part
of Hazlitt’s essay informs that we shouldn't let money become everything. There
is a certain extent to when money becomes all a person will live for, and that
is wrong. Money cannot buy real relationships. Friendships and true relationships
come directly from love and care. When a person loves you, you will be able to see
it in their eyes and their smile. Money can bring happiness with items, but you can never buy somebody's love.
