Life Is Better With Having Good Relationships: The Best Lottery In The World
"If you have two friends in your lifetime, you're lucky. If you have one good friend, you're more than lucky.”
As human beings, most of us are inclined to try our luck by buying the lottery. The chances of winning are one in millions.
But still, we purchase lotteries and anxiously wait for results. This is the basic human nature of every person living on the planet.
The US Powerball lottery is undoubtedly the best in the world. Its jackpots are bigger than any other lottery out there and it is one of the top paying lotteries ever.
The prizes are worth millions of dollars. One might ask if there is anything wrong with buying a lottery.
There is nothing wrong with trying our luck by buying a lottery. I only want to tell you not to become addicted to buying lotteries and spending thousands of dollars on them.
It is more important for a person to live with the little money he has than to amass wealth through luck and gambling.
But I would say that the best lottery in our life is to build good relationships. We have family, friends, and relatives.
It is important to discern properly with a mature elderly person at least once a year of our relationship status with other people living around us.
If we have a peaceful family life, half of the problems are solved. The love and affection received in the family are more important than winning a big lottery.
The fact of life is that even a criminal can amass wealth unethically. But it takes honesty and courage to lead a principled life and build good relationships in our lives.
I encourage you to spend at least an hour every week examining your conscience; and the status of your relationships with others. It is useless to win a lottery and have a bad relationship with family members and people in the community.
Most of us think that money, things, power, and fame bring happiness to our lives.
If so how does a poor family consisting of a father, mother, and two children living in a remote North Indian village is happier than 90% of people living in the rest of the country?
This family possesses only a hay-thatched house and two milking buffaloes as their wealth. But they have many good friends and relatives who spice up their life in this world.
"Love one another and treat others as you would like others to treat you." This is the cardinal principle of every religion in the world.
