  Money is not the most important thing but it is important, especially in a place like Singapore.

  Money can't buy love, but money can fake love.

  As adults, our choices are unlimited, but that does not mean they are not paintful. Frequentlyour choices lie between the lesser of two evils, but it is still within our power to make these choices

  Theorically speaking 'within limits'. But in actual fact easier said than done. Depends on the practicality, 'attraction' and situation....

  Money is a mean to certain things in life. So you can't really say it is important or non-important. It is wat u intend to do with the money that show the value of money.
  
  For a person who uses $5 to buy a pack of cigarettes, the value of the $5 is shorting of his life and a minute of pleasure.
  
  For a person who uses $5 to feed his family of 5, the value of that $5 is unmeasureable.
  
  Money by itself is nothing. It is what that money can buy that counts.
  
  Life is sad, but you still gotta live it, so why not make yourself happier, by living it with more meanings

  Eterna's Song
  
  The peace I yearn,
  a tale to tell,
  of pains so deep,
  my soul in hell.
  In search of peace,
  from heaven to hell,
  till the end of time,
  till the final knell.
  
  My soul in pain,
  my thirst unsated.
  The Art I mastered,
  Death's deadly bane.
  
  A name I used,
  A goal I seek,
  
  I called myself,
  the Peace Eternal.
  
  -Paz Eterna

  Happiness, tranquillity can provide $ for a
  hungry mouth. NKF is a good example. Without $ they suffer & even have to show their plight before people would even contribute $5
  Sad to say people with lots of $ are the saddest people cause they don't know how to share

  true indeed.
  It has always been this way - choices.
  
  To choose to donate or not.
  
  Pple tend to close their eyes, and spend the $$ to make theirselves happier - it is easier this way.
  
  but what is the worth of $$$ this way? few ever tot about it. A transient moment of pleasure or joy. You change little except maybe simulating the economy.
  
  You leave nothing in this world.
  
  As Albert Pine had said,
  What we do for ourselves dies with us;
  what we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.
  
  If the $$ is instead donated to aid a worthy cause, the worth of the $$ is not just a moment of pleasure, it is something eternal. it is not the gratitude of the recipients, but because, you had made a difference.
  
  Everyone, everything is interlinked, just like fate that encompass all of us in its tangled web. take pride in that you had maked a difference, no matter how small. Even the tiniest pebble will make a ripple in the largest ocean.
  
  Just something to share... one of my favorite verses by William Henry Channing
  
  My Symphony
  
  To live content with small means;
  
  To seek elegance rather than luxury,
  and refinement rather than fashion;
  
  To be worthy , not respectable, and wealthy, not rich;
  
  To study hard, think quietly,
  Talk gently,
  Act frankly;
  
  To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart;
  
  To bear all cheerfully,
  Do all bravely,
  Await occasions,
  Hurry never.
  
  In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.
  
  This is to be my symphony
  
  -- William Henry Channing(1810-1884)
