Nothing to be proud of money

There is nothing to be proud of money.
If you say you are rich, there are richer and richer men than you,in comparison with whom you are a mere beggar.

After dusk when the glow-worms make their appearance, they think, 'We are giving light to the world'. But when the stars begin to twinkle, the pride of the glow worms is humbled. Now the stars begin to think. 'We are illumining the universe'.

But after a while the moon ascends the sky, and her silvery light humiliates the stars and they pale away in sadness. Again the moon grows proud and thinks that by her light the world is lighted and bathed in the beauty.

Soon the dawn proclaims the ascent of the sun on the eastern horizon. And where is the moon now?????

If they who think themselves rich reflect over these facts of Nature, they would never boast of their riches and power..!!!!!
