Money is not important- A short story with a great moral!

Once upon a time, there was a wealthy businessman named David. He had everything money could buy, from luxury cars to an enormous mansion. David was always busy with work and had little time for his family, including his wife and two children. He believed that his wealth and success were the keys to happiness. It was important for them to have everything they wanted. He worked constantly, even on Sundays while his family went to church. 

However, one day, a financial crisis hit, and David lost all of his wealth and business. He thought that his life was over. He was forced to sell most of his assets, including his home and cars, and move into a small apartment.

David was devastated and couldn't believe what had happened to him. He felt like he had lost everything that mattered, and went into a great depression.

For the first time in years, David felt lost. His wife begged him to go to church with them, and reluctantly he went. It was as if the minister only preached for him. He realized that he had his focus on completely the wrong things. Worldly goods are not important. Family is most important.

After church, David had a conversation with his daughter. She told him how much she missed spending time with him and how all she wanted was for him to be happy. She told him that they didn't care about worldly things, and that she only wanted to spend time with him.

They all went to the park and they had a lovely picnic. David felt light for the first time in years.

From that day on, David dedicated himself to being a better husband and father. He started to spend more time with his family and participate in activities that brought them joy. He also took a job that allowed him to have a better work-life balance.

Although they no longer had the wealth they once had, the whole family was happier than ever before. He discovered that life was not about the things you own, but about the people you love and the memories you make with them. He was grateful to have his family by his side and cherished every moment they spent together.

David realized that money couldn't buy happiness and that the most valuable thing in life was the love and support of his family. He was thankful for the wake-up call that allowed him to rediscover what was truly important in life.

Nice story @benette 
You are welcome to the community. Hoping to read more of you work forward. 

In the real life too, money cannot buy you happiness. People should rather focus on love and affection and keeping a tidy relationship to enjoy life to the fullest.
