Money doesn’t change people



“Money doesn’t change people; it just lets the people be more what they really are.”

We always hear that money speaks; money changes relations and people. Is it true? It sounds true. But are they? NO.

Most people don't do things, not because they shouldn't. But because they don't have the opportunity to do that. Money opens up many opportunities. Then it's the person's choice what they will do with it. And most of the time, you will find, people are engaging with the negative things. When they had the full opportunity to do many good things.

Money didn't change them, just let them be more than what they really wanted to be.

About birthday


Yesterday was Shafeen’s(My 4 and half year old son) uncle’s (my youngest sister’s husband) birthday. Shafeen enjoyed the simple arrangements. But he has some questions about this birthday. I answered him as much as I can but seems his uncle also needs to answer one. Here they are

Shafeen asked, we didn’t celebrate birthday, why are we leaving? That means we still didn’t eat cake. I told him, your uncle has grown up enough not to cut a birthday cake. But my son didn’t agree, he said, uncle must feed us a cake. Now Shafeen’s uncle, you will face him next.

Shafeen also said, why didn’t I bring a toy for his uncle? I replied your uncle isn’t a kid; we bring toys for only kids. Shafeen somehow agreed OK, but please bring toy for me, a gun, which has life saving shield…….. And many more feature. I replied OK.


Shafeen also asked why his (Shafeen’s) birthday isn’t coming, why others are celebrating only. I replied, son, you have to wait, till your birth date comes. He said it’s not fair.
