The greatest wealth is to live content with little - Plato

Every one of us dreamed to become rich. Everyone wants to have a perfect life. And some of us define this perfect life like you have that everything, you have all the money, you can buy anything you want, you can go anywhere, you have a lot of cars, and a big house. But is that really a perfect life? Even though you are very rich what if there is other aspect of your life is missing. For me when you are very rich your life is always in danger. Why? Because you would not know if you go outside then someone tried to do bad things about you. When you have an abundance of material possessions, for sure you will need to protect them and worry over them. You will experience a stressful life. What if someone entered to your house and get all your things that are so expensive and the things that really capture their eyes and there is a chances that they will also kill you. So for me living in a simple life is better. Simple in a ways that you have enough money to support yourself or your family, you can give some things not to the point that you are going to spoiled yourself or your family. You can use your money but not in too much. As they always say “too much is also bad”


I agree with this quote of Plato “The greatest wealth is to live content with little”. It is a very important thought that we should put in our hearts and minds. If you are contented it means your life is less complicated and less stress. If you are living in a simple life you will know how to value every single thing. Because you know how to identify what is important in your life like you would first consider the thing that you need rather than what you want. If you are living in a simple life for sure it will lead to a happy home and spend quality time with each other. A home that is comfortable to live, a home that is have enough wealth, a home that is full of love, a home that is full of care and understanding, and home that is full of respect. When you have this kind of life it seems like you don’t want to die because you also feel that you are rich not because of the extravagance things in your life but because you know how to live simply and be contented of what you have. I am not saying that we do not have the right to become rich and have a luxurious thing. All I can say is that being simple life is really the best way of life. Contentment is also simplicity. A simple life that you can relaxed and a life that is filled of happiness and contentment. We people need to be thankful for what we have. We should always think that there are people who have nothing. Always be generous and satisfied! For me, living simple that is the essence of the greatest wealth to live content with little.
