"کسی که طمع می‌کند انسان فقیری است زیرا چیزهای زیادی می‌خواهد"

Geoffrey Chaucer

Simplified Meaning:

When someone always wants more things, they are never truly happy because they focus on what they lack rather than what they have. For example, if a person already has a nice home but constantly wishes for a bigger house or more luxurious items, they will never feel content. This mindset means they always feel like they are missing something, which keeps them feeling poor in spirit. On the other hand, if a person appreciates what they already have, they can feel rich and satisfied, even with less. It’s the difference between always chasing after more and being thankful for what’s already there. To apply this to your life, try to practice gratitude each day and be happy with what you have before seeking more.
