What do we value most in life? What makes us happy? Some will say "money and wealth." Others will respond without doubt: "Wisdom and knowledge." Some others again may suggest: "Power, position and fame." Are money, wealth, knowledge, power and fame then the most important things in our lives?
What if you were isolated?
When we face this question seriously, other thoughts may arise. There is no doubt that we all seek for wealth, knowledge, power and fame, which although valuable, in themselves are not the source of our happiness. Someone could have all the wealth in the world, as well as knowledge but, if obliged to live in isolation, such a person would not be happy. Goals such as money, wealth, knowledge, power and fame, only have meaning and value when they are shared or used for the benefit of others.
Would you exchange Money for Love?
We are happy when we can share our position, wealth, knowledge or anything of value that we possess, with other people. If someone would offer you billions of dollars, as well as knowledge and power in exchange for your loving spouse, parents or children, would you sell them? Would you be happy afterwards? Only when we have harmonious relationships of true love with others, can experience the greatest happiness.
Love is the most precious!
Consequently, happiness requires a relationship with someone and this is true as much for God as for man. Therefore, we have to come to the conclusion that what is most precious in life, is love. No amount of money, power or knowledge can ever match the infinite power of true love. It does not matter how long we live: our biological existence does not have value unless we experience love.
