How people are victim of a disease, long lasting as 'Greed'

   Since the start of humanity, humans have been a victim of a disease called greeed. Its in born and instinct  based disease I guess so. Its built in test for every human to hold this back. Its a test within it yourelf. Its an element that is eating up all our humanity. Its undermining all the qualities we have. Greed is an element which creates bickering among humans relations My mother always advised me "Never let money come into any relation, be it friendship, marriage or relatives". The first sin that was done by the human race was backed up by greed. I remember a time when people had less to worry about gathering up money and were more concerned about helping each other and preserving the relations.

  Greed has been given a new name, which is called being "smart". You help somebody until it doesn't effect your personal life and wealth. We see everyday that a wife leaves home to run in race and compete with his spouse in a career. We see everyday, that behind congratulating one of your colleague, their is an element of mockery and jealousy. we see everyday, that we fear, we might earn less, we fear that taking on dreams might cost us to be poor. There very few people who could be original in a world like this,. There very few people who put these things behind and move forward to achieve what the want. In a country, like Pakistan, people don't study here to learn,innovate and contribute to the society, rather they study to keep their pockets heavy. Even a post as a teacher has been corrupted by this element. I've had teachers who charged for me counselling, who charged me for extra help I needed.

   What have we done to this world? To this country? To our homes? This world has become a trap and the only way out is death. People in olden days had to less to show off and were more safe. They used to spend money where it was required . Everyone's homes were open for guests. We have filled our homes with worldly things and taken out those beautiful relations we had. There was a time, when kids in a family used to be a victim of being an orphan, they were rescued by their uncles and brought by them. Their was a time when people spent their savings on people in need. We buy new phones to compete rather to justify our need. we buy things to be among others and stand out, Company's keep extracting profits and create better and more expensive needs for our humans. If only we started spending according to our needs, than we could help the entire humanity. The whole system around this world is based on on this evil element. If we observe, interest rates that people receive annually on their wealth is a way securing wealth to the people who don't deserve it. It sounds childish to remove such a long lasting concept but in reality, were not things better when they were simple? Maybe they were made complicated to extract profits. What if there were no banks to offer interest rates, rather there were only an options to secure wealth through business? Wouldn't that circulate wealth to a certain extent?

   Humanity is vanishing and how ironic it is, that the world started with the element of greed and soon will perish because of the same element.
