wealth.<br />

A word that strikes so many different meanings<br />

– and feelings: freedom, health, peace;<br />

the list is infinite. When we hear the word<br />

wealth, to each one of us, it has its own<br />

meaning. It is an impossible word to measure<br />

due to its complexity because the word<br />

holds something different for each one of us.<br />

Many times, wealth is mistaken for the gain<br />

of money or material items. In my experience,<br />

money is not the highest achievement<br />

of a day of work, but the experience learned<br />

from it. Life is not a material trajectory, but<br />

instead, should be a recollection of memories<br />

traced through time, space and experience.<br />

To achieve lasting memories, create your<br />

own story and remember that wealth is what<br />

you make of it. Choose to surround yourself<br />

with those you love the most, follow your<br />

dreams, and fight hard to achieve your goals.<br />

Look around and discover the small things in<br />

life [that are free], remembering that’s what<br />

makes you “wealthy”. Stop taking for granted<br />

the little things in life that seem meaningless,<br />

as those are the most priceless experiences of<br />

all. Make your life a story that can be prized<br />

for your biggest achievements and greatness,<br />

not for how much money you have. Start<br />

living your life like it’s your last day on earth,<br />

and try to make every moment count. And<br />

don’t forget…Leave a legacy behind by always<br />

dressing outside how you feel on the inside. v<br />

With love,<br />

Leandro Mulet<br />

start living your life like<br />

it’s your last day on<br />

earth, and try to make<br />

every moment count.<br />
