Money IS Happiness

First and foremost, I would not be blogging on TPS if I did not have money. I would not be able to afford a laptop. Nor would I be able to have an internet connection. Now let me move on.
Take a person who has to worry about getting evacuated because he can’t pay rent, has sleepless nights worrying about his children’s future, worries about his phone, internet, gas, electricity and water bills, worries about how he will pay the doctor’s bill, has to sleep in the blistering heat as he can’t buy an A/C, whose wife has to wash clothes because he can’t afford a washing machine, whose children don’t have toys to play with, who begs others for money, who is buried under loans, who contemplates suicide, etc.
Now take another person who lives in a bungalow, drives a mercedes, has an expensive A/C, washing machine, fridge, furniture, plasma TV, laptop, curtains, carpets, decoration items, takes expensive vacations, travels first class, dines in expensive restaurants, has enrolled his children in the best school in his city, etc.
Which person would you like to be?
It is obvious that money can buy comfort, peace of mind, and subsequently happiness.
Now for the argument that money can’t buy love. The answer is, there are many women who have married men because they were wealthy, and the women fell in love with them after marriage. Also, there are many women who can and have fallen in love with poor men but couldn’t and didn’t want to marry them due to their low financial status.
Money is also beneficial for spirituality. A person can acquire a lot of good deeds and a place in heaven just on the basis of money. How about going for hajj, umrah, doing sadaqah, helping someone during a financial crisis, building a mosque, spending luxuriously on one’s family and a list of other things that are beneficial for spirituality.
People with lack of money beg others for money, including Muslims with long beards. From when their family member is in the hospital to when they want to get their daughters married. Keep in mind that begging does not have to be with a bowl on the street. Begging is a heinous sin in Islam and is very detrimental for spirituality.
How many people turn to crimes like theft due to lack of money. How many go and gamble for money. How many start smoking due to the stress of not having enough money. How many fall into other sins and problems due to lack of money.
I rest my case. If someone still thinks money does not bring happiness and/or is not important, they can give all their money to me.

I am very grateful to The Pakistani Spectator and Ghazala Khan for allowing me to write on TPS. There is a lot of awareness and information on politics and social issues but very little on magic. Magic is a reality and is destroying people's lives. It is a duty to help and educate people on this subject. God bless you all.

Remember always: Money can bring happiness only for a short period but not with satisfaction, then you can raise counter query what is satisfaction especially in the matter of soul.
Our desires always disappoint us; for though we meet with something that gives us satisfaction, yet it never thoroughly answers our expectation but you may with this as long as I have a want, I have a reason for living. Satisfaction is death but with good deeds.
There is no greater calling than to serve your fellow men. There is no greater contribution than to help the weak. There is no greater satisfaction than to have done it well.
Kutto Mujhay Naa Aazmao – Aisee Dhond Dhond ker laon ga QUOTES – Kay Chakra kay Gir paro gi.
Sari — ……….ty, …………..ty, ………..ty. Nikal Jaiy Gi – Tumhari – Acha Hay Kuch Dubli Ho- Jao Gi.
Pinky yeh mujhay lug raha hay kay yeh kona hay — Aajo Sub Say Chup kay batien kurtay hein.
Jao Mutt Aao - Jub Bhrosa ho - Tub Aana.
Yes. Money can buy happiness, but depends because:
(1) The “valid happiness” is defined as the feeling of a-step-better for keeping one’s own DNA alive.
(2) There is an optimal point for everything thing in respect to a person.
Money will certainly buy happiness if the thing it buys meets (1) and below (2). It buys happiness less and less if it goes above the optimal point more and more.
Actually, a great deal of unhappiness or suffering comes from “invalid happiness”.
