Have been feeling a little restless about how I must complete my house new house. The work has stalled since last June after I got the roof casting done. We called the builder to discuss how to proceed about it. While the gentleman was having tea with us we asked about his daughter, who just passed her Higher Secondary exam. She wanted to be an air hostess but ultimately her father decided against this plan. The reason, it offers job for a short span of life. Next, the thought was about going to a nursing school. The total amount of expenses dismayed her father. Finding no other opening the child has joined a degree college. A sour thought has remained in my mind . Is money the only power in this world? A good amount of money would have enabled the girl to train in a nursing school. If I had more of monetary resource, couldn't my house have been completed by now? 'Patience', a voice within is whispering, 'The house will be ready in its time'.

It is only those with plenty of money who say 'money isn't everything'. It's a sad fact that it's hard to advance in this world without a certain amount of money.

Patience is a virtue we all must have. Very difficult to understand life. At least it is for me. Money is necessary but patience is a must. I wish you the best with your home as well as his daughter.

Money is very necessary in order for us to survive. It is necessary for goods and services - including the best health care. However we must try to work with what we have.

Money has power but it has also limitations. It can't buy anything.
