We have a lot of people talk about “truth” over the last few years. Most mean something that “feels core” or “is as factual as emotion can be for me”, but those aren’t what I’m talking about today.

I’m wanting to reveal something deeper than an emotion. Something stronger than the bonds of our feelings for one another (both good and ill). Something sweeter than sugar, and more bitter than death.

You see, that is what truth is. It’s foundational, it’s impersonal, it doesn’t care about your desires. It doesn’t make you feel good, and it doesn’t make you feel bad. Truth makes you think, not feel, it’s not emotional but rational. Every other “truth” falls short of the meaning of the word, fundamentally falls short.

The only amount of money that will prevent you from worrying about money is 0. Like actual 0 not $17.27, but nothing, without any coming in ever. Then you will worry about food, shelter, warmth, and where you will get those from.

You see money can buy you those things, but it buys a lot of other things too, so when you worry about money you’re not really worried about your needs, but your wants.

I’m not saying seek poverty, but quit seeking more in order to “not worry about it anymore”, because such an amount doesn’t exist.

That is the truth of the matter.
