I think that often times people are attracted to wealth not to achieve happiness, but rather to relieve pain. Many of us, myself included, have been drawn into debt for a variety of reasons, often times self-induced, and the debt trap leads to depression and a sense of hopelessness.

There are many reasons to desire money but I enjoy your uplifting post that exemplifies the wonderful paradigm that is the steem community and philosophy. We are capable of bringing joy and happiness to ourselves and others and support our own creativity while making some coins too!

I'm new to steemit and have barely scraped the surface, but I absolutely love it already!
