We spend our lives running after what other people have. We want to be rich like the celebrities we see in the magazines, have the fancy lake house our brother has, live the life of leisure that our rich uncle leads. But there is truth to the old cliche, 'you are rich in spirit.'
As my mother writes,
"What is a rich person? The word ashir, "rich" in Aramaic is an acronym for the words "eyes, teeth, hands, feet." That's a rich person! Someone who has eyes to see, teeth to eat and speak, hands to create, and feet to walk. This, of course, does not refer only to the physical, but to our ability to be able to connect with, to share, to create, and to do."
Today, walk around like the gazillionaire you are. Look in the mirror and say YES, I'M RICH! Enjoy your wealth - and be generous with it.
