When you hear the word prosperity, what is the first image that comes to your mind? Money, family, love, children, fame, material possessions, real estate? In fact, the word prosperity has different meanings, but this idea varies from person to person.
Maybe prosperity doesn't need to be defined in just one meaning. In fact, the best way to define it is by grouping together the set of meanings it already has. Money, happiness, family, love… All of it.
Prosperity is a sign of possibilities. Financial and loving possibilities, with friends and alone. To be prosperous is to accept change, to take different paths when there are new and different opportunities. It's understanding that happiness is now. It's moving forward, taking advantage of every new chance that life provides. It's having the ability to be happy with little, even though you have a lot.
Asking for prosperity is asking for harmony in life, it is asking to be happy at work and to have peace and money to support yourself. Asking for prosperity is asking to have fun, to have friends, to love and be loved. It is asking for health to live, to help others, to educate and to be educated. It's being able to see things as they really are, without letting yourself be brought down by little and always evolving.
If analyzed carefully, the term prosperity is absolutely broad. It encompasses everything we desire and try so hard to achieve. After all, being happy, healthy, loved, having money. This whole set of factors could be summed up in just one: being prosperous.
Think: if you have a lot of money but hate your job, will you be happy? And if you don't have time to enjoy a trip or a day of rest, will you be happy? If you have a lot of friends but your health is poor, will you be able to enjoy it the way you would like? If you are healthy but have no real friends, will you be completely satisfied with your life?
Therefore, asking for prosperity is the same as asking for everything that is good and necessary to be truly happy – love, peace, happiness, affection, health, affection and, why not, money. Prosperity is whatever you want! The only theory we cannot accept is the one that defines prosperity solely by the amount of money you have. For this description, in addition to being incomplete, is quite naive.
To be prosperous is also to be wise. It's being genuine to get money fairly, being kind to be loved, being honest so they don't cheat on you too, being everything you want to get from the universe.
Prosperity is a very important word. Perhaps it is the one that has the greatest number of meanings, and all of them are indispensable. Given this analysis, it is easy to conclude that being prosperous with the world to obtain prosperity in your life is perhaps the greatest goal of human beings, even for those who have not yet discovered it.
