Sunday Prompts

I could be someone as big as a millionaire

If I had the money,

Unfortunately,

I’m more passionate about inner fulfillment

which is sweet like honey,

Not money.

    Ji thats how we truly embrace life when we look more for inner satisfaction rather than materialistic ones…i liked this :)

  4. Now is a time to just find enough to live, those with too much do not seem to want to share with the rest of us,lol.

  5. Gloria says:

    If someone were to drop a few million in my lap, I’m sure I could find great things to do with it, but I value what I have sooo much more. I like this one!

    Really optimistic, this one, Jingle. And I think a little money is a lot good!

  12. Money and passion. Oh, to make money while doing something passionately! I think most people confuse that with being passionate about making money. Thanks for writing this. I’m becoming a fan of yours, I must say.

  13. I know you got this award already, but I am giving it to you again.

  15. Judy Roney says:

    You sure have your priorities straight! Lovely!

  16. Lisa says:

    Well said and written. Money is most definitely not the key to happiness.

  17. Who needs money?………actually I do!

  18. robert says:

    Most of the time it is an ‘emptyness’ which makes things work, such as a cup, glass or door. Great entry. Please have a good new week.

  19. Hear, hear! Although there are times when a little extra in the account wouldn’t go astray, if you’re squared away in your heart and mind, it doesn’t really matter…

  20. andy sewina says:

    Here’s to inner fulfillment!

  21. Elaine says:

    This is tres cute. Love it +++

  22. dan says:

    Money draws honey,
    power draws honey,
    poetry doesn’t.
    I don’t have money, or power,
    sometimes I have a poem or two,
    but poetry just doesn’t do.

  23. Geraldine says:

    I like it! Good one. Hope all is well Jingle, I now have two new blogs I’m at.

  28. Old Egg says:

    Inner fulfillment pays out more in the end!. I think that makes you even bigger than a millionaire!

    Good one. Money is just a means, not an end.

  38. trisha says:

    wonderful…and my personal opinion is that inner fulfillment is so MUCH more important!!!

  43. dani says:

    at the end of our lives, money is not going to matter. so much said in so few characters. really nice!

  44. Well said and well done! I certainly don’t dislike money, but if I had to choose between money and inner fulfillment with my family and my honey, I would turn my back on money.
