This article is my true expression about greed. Please comment about your views on greed.

How many days will it take for you make a world of your dream? Well, even if you take a thousand years still it the world of your dream will not be completed because we are so greedy.

The words of the the great Prophet Muhammad ( peace be upon him) : “Oh sons of Adam! You wish for a room of gold, when you have it, you will wish for a valley of it”.

Similiarly the words of the great leader Mahatma Gandhi : “The earth has enough for everyone’s need but for anyone’s greed”.

The greatest personalities make it simple. They live their life and set an example. Their life is very simple. Greed is the only thing that causes almost all the problems in the world. It is the same greed that is the most important reason for the serious crimes in the world.

We should try to live our life happily with what we possess. Even if it is little be happy with it. Never look into your neighbours house and say “Oh! I wish I had that”.

Remember my friends. Greed makes you blind.

    An excellent viewpoint, but unfortunately most people won\’t change.

    Yes I know people won’t change. But i will be happy if atleast ONE person takes some time to think about it.

    so true. though it kind of reminds me of celebrities and all… they get so much for doing so little… what about people who actually work an honest living…? all they care about is the money and the fame.

    Ah, but it is an intention in the world that systems be used to exploit the many to accumulate wealth for the few. They wish us to be satisfied with our lots or to think everything will be made fair in some afterlife.
