There are plenty of thoughts and reflections in my mind. I feel that it’s good that I can note it down so that I can review it in future and see what I have written about in the past.
It just to my mind about wealth and lifestyle. Often, I would desire for a lavish lifestyle with big cars, big houses, branded goods and so on and to achieve that, I would need to be wealthy.
It also came to my mind that, splurging unnecessarily to satisfy our human desires would not be beneficial for myself in the long run and also would not create any good for myself in the eyes of Allah. I do ever buy expensive goods but they do not make me happy forever. When I have made the purchase of the branded good, I would feel great to have a superior product. Why? Most of the time due to its uniqueness and also its quality. It doesn’t ultimately provide me with an eternal and true source of happiness.
So I was thinking, then why should I be chasing after wealth and do business so that I would be able to be wealthy? If it leads me to a lavish lifestyle and makes me think more on dunia, then what is the point of being wealthy.
Then, it came to my mind that it’s the lifestyle that I choose to live. The huge amounts of wealth one has does not mean that the person must lead a lavish lifestyle.
I was a little interrupted by my mother a few seconds ago and I’ve lost track on what I wanted to say. It does not matter then.
