What does richness really mean? Frida L. (2n ESO)


Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich and a tragedy for the poor.

This sentence is from a Jewish Russian comedian and writer, called Sholom Aliechem. This sentence stood out for me because I think it is very real.

“Wise people live a dream”: because they know what they will do and they know what they want.

“A game for the fool”: I like this part because I think that it is very real, if you don’t do your responsibilities you can end very badly.

“A comedy for the rich”: these are strong words, I think that rich people live in another world from the other people because they don’t have the same point of view as others.

And “a tragedy for the poor” : that’s the total opposite of the other part. Poor people need the help of everyone to get a better world for all of us. It’s a tragedy because if poor people are in a war they can’t evacuate because they don’t have money.

This sentence touched my heart because every category of people in this sentence needs the other one to get a better world. The fool need the wise and the poor need the rich.
