Is money everything in life?

Is money everything in life?
 
If I just think of a single minute like this. "I am without money can I survive in this world?"
Oops! highly impossible. The day begins with the money and ends with the money. We need money for everything. To buy food-grains, to build house, to pay bills, to get education, to get medical-treatment, for travelling and likewise.
 
Money makes the world go round. My father-in-law used to say money makes many things, it makes people change their moods and colors.

 In the world of business money is the prime force. May be sports, entertainment or any other business, money can fix matches, drop catches, miss goals and change roles.

 At present we see money plays a vital role in matter of faith of gurus. It can bring you the choicest blessings of gurus. You can become ardent- follower. With money we can have a quick darshan of our favorite lord in temples without having to wait in long queues.
 
In reality every one work for money rather than for pleasure. We work and spend 8 hours or more in work. Why?  The motto is to earn  money.  We feel secure, safe and calm when we know that our bank balance is not empty.

  Money creates such illusion that we are living in a paradise.

But when I think of other side of it, I feel money is not everything.

Of course, money can buy us a big and beautiful house but not a happy home sweet home. It can buy us tasty and delicious food and expensive health care but not good health.

It can provide us with high security but not even minimum safety. It can buy us a comfortable bed but not sound sleep.
 
It can bail us out from the worst crimes but can't help us escape divine justice. It can buy blood but not life. With money we can buy a position but not respect.

There is a popular saying-'Don't go after money, make money come after you.' 

Hence as long as we use money as masters, it will bring us happiness.  If you become slaves to it, it would bring loss and misery.
 '
Hence money is not everything in life but it is essential for our survival.
