More was never enough

"More was never enough 
I'm 86 years old
and sadly I'm basically sitting on my
deathbed I have millions of dollars in
the bank and can't buy health to save
my life now I have family and millions
of fans around the world but I'm all
alone now
not even my children or long extranged
wife or brother stand around my deathbed
I live my life wrong and I don't want
this happen to you if you listen and
take evasive action I can help you
change your future the following few
moments may very well change your life I
wish someone told me this when I was
your age
money is not evil by itself it's just
paper with perceived value to obtain
other things we value in other ways
if not money what is evil you may ask? Evil
is the unquenchable obsessive and moral
bending desire for more
evil is the
bottomless soulless and obsessive
compulsive pursuit of some pot of gold
at the end of some rainbow which doesn't
exist

Evil is having a price tag for your
heart and soul in exchange for financial
success at any cost
 
Evil is trying to buy happiness again
and again until all of those fake
short-lived mirages or emotions are gone
imagine having it all only to lose it all
You are now broke all the money is gone
what do you have?
the only solution to your madness and
happiness was acquiring more
now you have
no more means to acquire fake happiness
no more means to acquire more
so who are you now? 
where are all the people now? 
who you thought we were friends
while the money was flowing in you might
have lost your family, friends and mostly
everyone in the world thinks you're a
self-centered egotistical asshole why
because of your endless pursuit for more
clouded your mind and diverted you from
your true purpose in life
Does this hit
an emotional chord in you did it oppress
or sadden you, I almost said good but I will say
this only because I wanted to change, I'm
not saying you can't be financially
successful I'm saying have a greater
purpose in life well beyond the pursuit
of financial success
your soul is
screaming for you to answer your true
calling you can change the day if you
redefine what success is to you, you
can transform your damaged relationships
and build new ones you can forgive
yourself and others who've hurt you

You've become a leader by mentoring with
others who you aspire to be like you can
rebalance your priorities in life you
can heal your marriage and recreate a
stronger love than you ever thought
possible you can become the best parent
possible at any age even eighty-six
but
don't wait until then you'll always be
able to make more money but you cannot
make more time
 
One day just like me you'll die too
what do you want to be remembered for
what can you do for others to make the world
a better place what is your true purpose
on this earth we are all dying but only
a small select few are truly living

You can step out of the shadows
into the
light you're meant for greatness
you're meant for more than just what you
do for a living you are an eternal being
meant to inspire and help the world
let's get right once and for all in this
lifetime
today you step into the world where true
love exists and you finally realize that
love in fact is the more you wanted your
whole life
 just love more and more every day in every way
And never give up
regardless of how challenging your
destiny in life will be the world really
needs you now more than ever together
with love compassion forgiveness and
faith in humanity we will defeat evil
once and for all."
