“The love of money is the root of all evil.” It’s true.
It makes people do things that they never thought they’d do.
It makes people betray and put down their friends

It makes people covet things that don’t belong to them.
It can blind people and be the only thing they see.
It can make a man lie so endlessly.
It can make you realize the following is true:
Sometimes what you’re looking for is right in front of you.

He had finally earned enough to buy one special thing.
He held it in his hand; it was a shining golden ring.
Today was the day he planned to tell Bella he loved her,
And ask her to marry him and promise to be true forever.
Anna told Ben what had happened and he knew it was meant to be,
So he took Bella’s hand and got down on one knee.
And that was when Bella realized the truth so strong:
That Ben was the one who she had loved all
