Which will you choose Wealth, Success or Love?
Welcome back!
I got an email from a reader name Laruen M. yesterday; she asked, “What is more important Wealth, Success or Love?” I am going to answer the question with a story.
Once upon a time, a family of 3 lives in a little house in the country side. One day the wife looks out the window and saw three old men with long white beards sitting in the front yard. The family decided to invite the three old men in, because they look hungry.
The wife went outside and she said to the old men, “You three must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat”. The men replied, “We do not go into a house together.” She asked, “Why is that?”
One of the old men explained: “His name is Wealth,” he said pointing to one of his friends, and said pointing to another one, “He is Success, and I am Love.” Then he added, “Now go in and discuss with your family which one of us you want in your home.”
The woman went back inside and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed. “How nice!” he said. “Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!”
His wife disagreed. “My dear, why don’t we invite Success?”
Their daughter was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion: “Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love!”
“Let us take our daughter’s advice,” said the husband to his wife. “Go out and invite Love to be our guest.”
The woman went out and asked the three old men, “Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest.” Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two also got up and followed him.
Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: “I only invited Love, why are you coming in?” The old men replied together: “If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would’ve stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success!”

Very good story. Love accompanies wealth and success. But others do not necessarily accompany love. We should be careful in our lives choices. Heart warming story very much suitable to read in New Year. Thank you, Giovanna!
Nice Site layout for your blog. I am looking forward to reading more from you.
