True Wealth

The things of this world will never complete you or make you whole.
There will always be a bigger house, a newer gadget, a brand new style.
Contentment will never be found in this realm.
Awards, trophies, and plaques will fade and crumble.
Banners and baubles will remain when you have moved on.
Real fulfillment comes not in the material possessions of this earth;
but rather in the lives you've touched and the memories you've etched.
Be careful to tread lightly, yet profoundly.
Be sure to lift up and support, instead of demean and degrade.
Be sure to selflessly give without expectation of accolade.
Therein lies the true wealth of existence.
