LUCKY DIARY#4：Transforming Wealth into Meaningful Experiences

 

When it comes to consumption, the wise may say that you need to discipline, and choose what you need instead of what you want. It's a good advice. And what I'd like to add is that you sometimes need to choose what make you feel good.

Donate

When donating, you loss money but feel good. You let money go travil to those who need it. I remember when I got my first job, I made up my mind that I'll donate parts of my incomes since I've earned it by myself. However, I did less than I thought and even forgot it until these days, when I donate to an ambulance fund, reminding me to give rather than to take.

Health

When people is healthy, they don't know how hard it would be when sick or hurt. As the old saying, health is one, and wealth and ralationship and all others are zero. If you don't have one, it's meaningless no matter how many zeros you have. So, daily health care is as important as financial management. I once went to consultin room twice a week because of a harsh work loading. It made me sad not only pain physical, but also the pribe of my strong body is hurt. So, buy a nice shoes and get a sports watch, star exercising now.

Arts

Honesy, I always have no patience with practice. So sometimes I pay and learn something but quit it quickily. Cello, my favorite instrument, is an example. However, I feel peace and sincerely delighted when I played it. Maybe some day I'll recall my love for it again.

Some consumption seems like waste. But if you can get something form it, like peaceful and happiness, it is worthy.

In the realm of consumption, the wise often advocate for disciplined choices, emphasizing needs over wants. While this advice is undeniably valuable, I'd like to propose an additional perspective – the importance of choosing what brings you genuine joy.

1. Donation:

Consider the act of donating; it may seem like a monetary loss, but the emotional gain is immeasurable. Directing funds towards those in need allows your money to travel with a purpose. Reflecting on my own journey, I recall the commitment I made when embarking on my first job – a promise to donate a portion of my earnings. However, life's demands sometimes caused me to overlook this pledge. Recently, contributing to an ambulance fund served as a gentle reminder, reinforcing the notion that giving can be more fulfilling than receiving.

2. Health:

In life's intricate weave, good health is the key to fulfillment. As the proverb wisely states, "He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has everything." Amidst the chase for wealth and relationships, health remains the unchanging '1'. Reflecting on a period of frequent clinic visits due to the strains of an excessive workload, my once robust body yielded to the demands. These experiences highlight the crucial role of daily health care, guarding our most precious asset. Similar to financial management securing wealth, prioritizing health injects profound meaning into life's equation. As a tangible suggestion, one might consider investing in new shoes and a sports watch, signaling the potential start of a revitalizing journey into regular exercise.

3. Arts:

Admittedly, patience eludes me during practice sessions, leading to brief dalliances with various pursuits. The cello, my beloved instrument, serves as a poignant example. Despite my tendency to swiftly abandon such endeavors, playing the cello brought me an inexplicable sense of peace and genuine delight. Perhaps, in the future, I will rekindle my passion for it.

In essence, certain consumptions may initially appear wasteful. Yet, if these investments yield intangible returns such as serenity and happiness, they become invaluable experiences.

Unveiling the Tapestry of Wealth: Crafting a Symphony of Meaning

In the intricate dance of financial decisions, wisdom often advises a disciplined approach, favoring necessity over desire. However, beneath this practical guidance lies a realm of untapped richness—the ability to curate experiences that resonate with genuine joy.

1. The Art of Giving: Consider the profound act of philanthropy; it may appear as a monetary transaction, yet its emotional dividends are immeasurable. Redirecting funds to those in need transforms currency into a conduit of purpose. Recollecting the commitment made at the outset of my professional journey—to allocate a portion of earnings to charity—the recent contribution to an ambulance fund acted as a gentle reminder. It underscored the notion that generosity, far from being a loss, unveils a tapestry of shared humanity.

2. Wellness as Wealth: In life's intricate tapestry, robust health emerges as the linchpin of fulfillment. As the adage wisely imparts, "He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has everything." Amidst the pursuit of material affluence and meaningful relationships, health stands unshakable as the essential '1'. Reflecting on the chapters of frequent clinic visits spurred by an onerous workload, the once resilient physique succumbed. These episodes spotlight the pivotal role of daily healthcare—guardianship of our most precious asset. Analogous to financial stewardship securing material wealth, prioritizing health infuses life's equation with profound significance.

3. Harmonizing with the Arts: Admittedly, patience falters in the realm of practice, leading to brief dalliances with various artistic pursuits. The cello, a cherished instrument, serves as a poignant example. Despite a propensity to swiftly abandon such endeavors, the resonance of the cello brought inexplicable tranquility and genuine delight. Perhaps, in the symphony of life, the echoes of passion for the cello will resound once more.

In essence, seemingly extravagant expenditures may reveal themselves as investments when they yield intangible returns—serenity, joy, and a richer tapestry of existence.
