【选择。Choices】富裕和选择 Wealth and Choices

很久以前,我有想过这个问题。人在人的社会真的需要钱吗?不能就做自己喜欢的事吗?

后来多一点观察以后,富裕和选择是成正比的。选择会因为越来越富裕而越来越多,当然也会因为越来越贫穷而越来越少。

后来会想,如果可以选择做自己喜欢做的事情,其实就算很幸福了,要好好地珍惜,不要以为是理所当然。

比较富裕的人可以选择吃垃圾食物,可是非常贫穷的人不能选择吃摆在高级餐厅桌上的新鲜健康美食。

有很多时候,就连贫穷也不是贫穷人的选择。

Long time ago, I thought about these questions. Is money really a necessary to a human in a human world? Is it not possible to do the things you like to do without the money?

After a long observation, I realized number of choices is directly proportionate with wealth. Greater wealth comes greater choices and wise-versa.

Later, I realize if I can choose to do what I like to do, it is very fortune for me. Hence, I need to appreciate it and not take it for granted.

Richer people can choose to eat the food in the rubbish bin, but poorest people in the world cannot choose to eat the food presented on the table of the high-class restaurant.

For most of the time, poor is not even a choice for the poor.
