Rich by heart but not in money is better than rich in money, than poor by heart and greed is not a financial issue but heart issue and single lie destroys the whole reputation of integrity.

The events that we came across daily becomes part of our on next day as the history is a collection of events that occurred in the past. I have the habit the issues that encounter me repeatedly and some of these events extremely pleases me while others extremely and I believe that is surprised reason being, it is impossible to see everything that makes us pleases the nature of human being built on diversity. The important point in the formal meaning is that it indicates there is a point of difference. This means diversity broadly refers to many demographic variables and even though diversity addressed in number of areas such as colour, nationalities, gender, age, education and kills, however since human being qualities differs from each other, we can consider the various qualities as part of diversity. In the event I saw someone treat me exceptionally, I have the culture to write the good treatment extended to me by that great person. Few months ago, on weekend, I lost my credit card while I was about something in central London and I called someone that I extremely like him, as he good manner and reputation had admired and inspired and the reason that made to call that gentleman was to lend him some money till my bank will be open on business and subsequent I raised my request to him, without thinking even a second, the gentleman hastily moved to the nearest ATM machine to pull out the amount requested from his account and instantly handed the money to me.


The way he responded to my request being admired, on next I called him to return his money, he refused to take the money insisting that, the intention of giving me the money was to consider as a grant not as loan. The amount of money being a very considerable amount, I said to him, it is impossible that I will take your money, then I read an oath that he will not take as sole intention as grant and he expressed how much he liked me and the circumstances furthermore inspired, I have attempted to influence him to take his money, but he never changed his original decision. Once again, I have attempted to influence to half of the money, but my attempt has no impact with. After a week has passed from the date he refused to take the money, I have decided to buy a small gift to him expressing how much his generosity has an impact to me and to be frank that gift was 50 % of the amount of money that he granted me and i influenced to accept the gift which I succeed it.


Earlier than, this incident, the same person requested to enter business partnership with me in Somaliland promising to contribute the bulk of the invested amount, I told him since I do have much business experience, it is wise both of us not encourage such move explaining more explanation for my justification which he accepted later. Not a long ago, the same gentleman came to me and request me meet a business man from one of the gulf countries in Dubai acting on behalf to do certain type of business and promising to absorbing all my travel expenses and my other expenses during the trip, however when I analysed the proposal, I found the same is not viable and my trip to Dubai will sources him to lose his money as a result of my travel expenses. He insisted his request, but subsequent to many days, I influenced to accept my justification. It is worth to mention that business man from one of the Gulf countries promised me at arranged for me a very executive job when he came to know with regard to my experiences. The generosity that, this friend extended to me seriously had impact with me and his name round the hour in a memory.


That friend even though he is a distant to me by blood, he proved to me how much he liked me. That is an evidences that, there could be some people that possibly distant to you blood, but behave better than anyone that may connect close by blood. One more issue which is very important to me, Goodness is about character, integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people. True generosity is an offering; given freely and out of pure love. No strings attached. No expectations. Time and love are the most valuable possession you can share. Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need. Teach love, generosity, good manners and some of that will drift from the classroom to the home and who knows, the children will be educating the parents. There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up. A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal. I hired a black cap driven by Somali driver and our way to my destination, we exchanged good stories on our way to me destination which pleases both of us. After about 25 minutes, we reach to our destination, i pulled out my wallet to pay the cost of the trip, but in a loud voice, please consider the trip as a free a cost, the distance he drove being very long, I influenced him to take his money, but insisted not at all expressing how much he liked the stories that I chat with him during the trip.


I told the nice treatment expressed to me this good person to many Somalis in UK and it is confirmed to me that, the generosity of this noble man is known to every person who knows him. Stinginess is the contradictory of generosity. While a generous person gives freely- often finding giving pleasurable activity, a stingy person withholds and finds giving hard and uncomfortable. Though stinginess is most commonly associated with money, a person may be stingy in other things too. Stingy people find it hard to give or lend money to others. They take more and give less. They go to great lengths to ‘save’ money. I’m not saying that saving money isn't a good thing but a stingy person sacrifices inordinate amounts of time and energy just to save a little money. They usually love borrowing stuff from other people instead of buying their own and once they borrow things, they always seem to forget to return it. Stinginess is not the same as frugality. While frugality is an intelligent and efficient use of time, energy and resources, stinginess is a form of fear- a fear of not having enough that motivates a person not to give away his possessions even if giving them away won’t cause him any problems.


Like most human behaviours, the reason why a person becomes stingy is usually buried in his past experiences especially childhood ones. A child who grew up in a family that had very little money and resources may develop a financial insecurity as a result of witnessing the constant worry and anxiety of his family members about not having enough Therefore, the primary reason why a person exhibits stinginess is because he feels insecure about money. This financial insecurity makes it hard for him to give away something that he ‘believes’ he lacks. I intentionally used the word ‘believes’ because the financial insecurity of a stingy person may either be real . What I’m trying to say is that even though a person may have lots of money, he may still feel insecure deep inside and thus behave in a stingy manner. A person develops fear of intimacy for various reasons but the most common reason is not trusting people. Money has never made man happy, nor will it; there is nothing in its nature to produce happiness.


The more of it one has the more one wants and a good and even though some people believe that money sources them reputation, but it true that reputation is more valuable than money and cannot acquired through accumulating money. The word stingy means miser who does not want to spend his money whatsoever, mean, parsimonious. It is expressed with the word “bukhl (miser)”. A stingy person is called “bakhil”. A bakhil likes keeping his money and gives it only when he is asked. The opposite of stinginess is generousness. A generous person gives money without being asked first and likes giving it. Stinginess means “Refraining from spending something which is supposed to be spent and refraining from giving freely to someone else because of excessive love for money and property. Human beings were created as stingy and impatient.


That means these traits come from their disposition. Moreover, they have got both negative traits such as hatred, grudge and enmity and positive traits such as love, affection and kindness. Each of these is a corridor leading to either good or evil. In this sense, human beings should close the doors opening to evils and control their negative feelings and passions with the help of religious thoughts and feelings, which is called in religion “secondary disposition.” One should develop this disposition so that he can comprehend the perfection that is destined for him, that is, he can turn his disposition, which can turn into anything, to be something good, that is, into a believer. Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see, it is language which the dumb can speak and the deaf can understand. There is no great loan than sympathetic. The whole intention of this article is to enlighten that rich by heart but not in money is better than rich in money, than poor by heart and greed is not a financial issue but heart issue. as believed by some elements of our society, money and enjoying jobs cannot gave us dignity, good reputation, but generosity and good moral principle source us dignity


. There are two category of people of people namely those their generosity and good moral principle sources respect and those love for money and greedy manner source them lack of good reputation Reputation may be considered as a component of identity as defined by others. Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real. It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only one bad one to lose it. A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard. The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear. A good reputation is more valuable than money. In short, your reputation is in the hands of others. That's what the reputation is. You can't control that. The only thing you can control is your character. To be frank those that generosity inspired me are distant by blood and those love on money weaken their moral and reputation is few elements who contrary with regard to relationship in contrast with those distant by blood to my and without elaborating furthermore, one can my intentions between the lines.


You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you. Making money and creating wealth is one of my weakest areas – knowledge wise when it comes to self-improvement. Happiness is not in the mere possession of money. Money never made a man happy yet, nor will it. There is nothing in its nature to produce happiness other than moral principle which no buy for any amount of money. Money you cannot for anything other than health and good reputation. In the event good reputation can be purchased from the market, lot of people could have bought it.
