True wealth

If I was the richest man in the world it wouldn't last long.

The first day my mind would trouble.

How can I help others in need.

How can I make this money provide for many and not just me.

Sleeping in a house way to big to make a home just doesnt seem right.

Even if theres just one someone out there with no roof above there head tonight.

My needs aren't much.

I refuse to pretend I've helped and cared if all I've really done is payed for useless stuff.

This much could feed me and mine a million lifetimes or more.

On the other hand to the homeless I can give not a bag of groceries but permanent access to the whole store.

Never looking to star in commercials and ask viewers for help.

Id do this for the right reasons so who cares who knows I think I'll keep it to myself.

Though I couldnt hide this people would remember me.

Sadly that memory would be that I had the most Money in the world once with no mention of the good deeds theyve refused to see.

The last thing to mind 

Would be credit deserved for my money but instead satisfaction found in dedication of my time.

I did this for those in need never for me ,myself, or I

That one day that labeled me richest of them all 

Represents what followed as my rise and not my fall.

I had all the money I could ever need but it was gone the second day on.

I've found true wealth in this act that I've done right where so many go wrong.

These riches I now see

are result of my efforts to live life full and complete. 

This is true wealth where money can't and will never compete.
