Wealth comes with contentment. Whoever seeks it in having a lot of wealth shall not find it. Comfort comes with having fewer worries. Whoever has more things to worry about shall not find it. An easy life comes with having very little work to do. Whoever seeks it in a lot of work shall not find it. Respect comes with obeying the Creator. Whoever seeks it in serving the people shall not find it.â
