Ugh, just a little poem i wrote.


There is gold, and there is silver

There are spices and there is land

There are cars and there are houses

There is any object you could ever conceive of buying

And they may bring joy

And they may bring comfort

They may bring smiles

And laughter

They may be genuine in there moment

But in the end

Things will not bring you happiness

Because the blind man on his death bed

Does not lament his lack of sight

But lack of the memories of the things he had never seen

It is the experiences and deeds we do in life

That inevitably forms who we will be remembered as and how we will live

You hear not of an obscure king and his great riches

But of the wild haired scientist who devoted his life to the betterment of all humanity

Live by your deeds because in the end

Money is worthless

The things you do, and the ones who you truly love

Will be all that matters
