The Bank Account That Matters Most

Ultimately it is the only bank account that matters because it is the only one you will take with you at the end of your life.

It is the bank account filled with all the deposits you made throughout your life, the one that resides in your heart. It contains all of your acts of love and generosity and the kindness you bestowed upon others without ever taking credit for those kind acts.

Added to those deposits is all the forgiveness you offered and all the times you did not complain when you had every right to but instead in faith and good will moved on with your life.

This bank account is packed with happy memories of the joyous times you had with family and friends and the times you helped others to celebrate the important dates in their lives.

All of those deposits paid you interest in each of your days as their memories brought joy to your heart.

However, this bank account also contains all your withdrawals measured in your mistreatment of others, your lies and deceptions, the many times you looked away as others called for your help, whether in wars you did nothing to stop, other cruel acts you ignored or those who needed your charity to whom you turned a blind eye.

If you are concerned about your bank account, now is the time to take corrective action.

Let others know you love them, add to it your kind acts and your forgiveness, develop a social and charitable conscience and before you know it you will become one of the richest of people in the only currency that truly matters.
