Charity for Balance


What have you done so far in your life? From your first work, your first accumulated money, from your first serves in society. Who do you think most? Who do you work for? Obviously most of the people will answer or in their hearts knew it is they themselves that is the most important one.
You work for yourself.
You work to have money, to buy or acquire things. Most of the people do nowadays. It’s no shame to admit but you can be proud to be doing.
I have been doing that for many years. I worked as hard as possible. I saved money as much as possible. I bought things that I want, and think of myself most of the time.
But I don’t feel satisfied. Why? I thought if I saved enough money to buy the things that I want. I can be happy but why this feeling? Why the happiness can’t last long? I can only be happy for no more than 1 day on a new purchased guitar. Why?
I have been searching for this answer for some time and now I knew. I still don’t understand 100% but I knew something is missing. Something is not enough. I read many success books that I can get, I hear as many audiobooks that I can get. I noticed something. Most of the books mentioned almost the same values with new or different points of view but they all didn’t miss this one thing. This one thing that I have overlooked. Such a simple thing.

“Charity”

If it’s not important, why Robert T of Rich Dad mentioned about saving $1 for investment , $1 for savings and $1 for charity?  Why all the rich men do charity? Why is it important for them? To us that wants to be like them but failed only follows what is seems important…. Accumulate money, budget, do not spend, get more assets… but they did not follow and do charity. They overlooked, just like me. But I have awaken, I have learned my lessons. I now wants to seek more information on this charity’s Magic. I want to study it. Learn the magic behind it.
Magic, I have told by a friend. Consider a wise man to me, he said that people do charity for many reason and the word itself serves many meanings. It may be in form of money, help & etc but it must be unconditional. A sincere one. It was to make a balance.

Balance.

We humans can’t  go for extremes, we will destroy/sabotage ourself. Once we get to extreme. We need balance. We live in a world of day and night,  We believe in Yin Yang. We need a balance. What we get , we need to give some out to seek balance. Balance.
I need balance……
I thought I can go for extreme. But I’m not born that way. I need to be human. What I need to do now is to make lemonade out of my given lemon….
