Life (Salt Of Life 3) (Being Content With)

I worked for money.
I talked about money.
I played game of money.
I dreamed of money.
My life was all money,
though I had plenty.
I was not happy,
because I was greedy.

My life was successful but I was not satisfied,
so it became so dry.
Not knowing how to be content with what I had,
Always feeling my bank account was 1 million less.
One day when the stock market crashed,
I felt a severe pain in my chest,
caused by AM I which lead me to death.
For my whole life, I had been accumulating wealth,
which I couldn't take with me to the grave
With even a large sum of money, my life couldn't be saved.

'Being content with ' is exactly Salt of Life,
and a powerful treatment recipe for a greedy heart.

(AMI =acute myocardial infarct, a form of heart disease that kills)
