RE:I love this board.Money and power are just a couple of ways of keeping score in life. The lack of money doesn't make someone a loser in life. Far from it. What makes one a loser is complaining about what they don't have instead of doing something about it.
If you want more money, find a way to make it. If you want more friends, be a better friend. If you want more love, be more loving.
Complaining is a horrible trait. Nobody wants to hear it with the possible exception of others who share the same trait as misery definitely loves company.
There is no sense in complaining about something unless you can offer a better solution.
What I read here from the complainers about arrogance is not arrogance. Life is very humbling. Those that have achieved financial success have likely paid for it in ways that those who complain will never sacrifice.
Being jealous of someone else for having money or things that you don't have is pure folly and perhaps the result of obtaining the corrupt values seen on television or the demented antics of the internet.
Instead of focusing on what you don't have, perhaps it is time to focus on what you do have. If you are kind or generous, let those qualities shine through and you will be surprised how much life gives back. Give generously of your time to others. Bask in good health as it is fleeting. Enjoy the unbelievable beauty of nature. Get off your butt and move your body in the ways that nature intended.
Anybody that thinks that they are superior to others just doesn't get it, just as those that complain about others just don't get it. Those that share their gifts are just doing their part. We all have gifts and those that do nothing with those gifts are wasting their lives.
Everyone's journey involves struggle and sacrifice unless one takes a back seat and whines about how crappy life is. Shooting one's mouth off about the journeys of others only shows one's ignorance as you have no idea what others deal with or have gone through.
I feel a momentary sense of sadness for the people that complain on this thread. Then I realize that they are just working their way through a process like the rest of us.
