Poverty isn't defined by a shortage of material possessions, but rather by the endless craving for excess.

It's a reminder to pause and reflect on our desires—are we constantly seeking the next upgrade, the latest gadget, or the bigger house? When your eyes are fixed on acquiring more, you're never truly satisfied with what you have.

It's like trying to quench thirst by drinking saltwater—the more you drink, the thirstier you become. So, when was the last time you felt genuinely content with exactly what you had in your life, without yearning for anything extra?

It's easy to fall into the trap of feeling inadequate when we compare our lives to others, especially in this age of social media where everyone's highlights seem to overshadow our day-to-day reality.

But suppose, just for today, you decided to count your blessings rather than your lacks. How might that shift your perspective? Could cherishing the people, experiences, and possessions already in your life transform your definition of what it truly means to be ‘rich’?

Next time you feel the tug of jealousy or dissatisfaction, ask yourself: Is it really about not having enough, or is it about an endless appetite for more?
