They would (instead of hoarding their money, going on overseas holidays, buying themselves expensive cars, boats and looking after only their own), put money back into the community in various ways that encouraged the common folk, helped the poor and needy.
And the wealthy and powerful really enjoyed doing this, and they enjoyed the way that the people were so grateful, and in many ways it came back to the rich and those with power in a positive way. Everyone is the winner of such kindness.
*
Those that were wealthy and were religious gave credit to their Creator, and that kept them humble, and they would do things for the community to help out those who had less opportunities, a labour of love.
*
Some would offer free training in the work force, some would offer crafts and such to help the public.
The community felt appreciated, they didn’t dislike the wealthy, they worked hand in hand with those in leadership and power, because they felt good about who they had been treated and the general attitude of the community was of thankfulness, feeling grateful, appreciated and cared for etc.
When the people feel good about their community and those who are better off than them it works out for all. Instead of the rich getting more security, alarms, etc, they spend money on the community that benefited the mental attitude of the young adults, and this caused the young adults to feel wanted worthy, needed, and they respected their elders and felt it an honour to have been blessed by those who valued them enough to give them a help up in life.
⚪
When the young have a feeling of goodwill around them, are treated with respect, are given opportunities to do things that build their intelligence, wisdom, pride in the community, self respect, they will want to stand up for their leaders, and stand with the people that helped them out, and they want to be honest, hard working and to give back to those who gave them a chance.
The young adults do careless foolish things because they have nothing better to do and do not have a strong believe in life, love, goodwill and family. Those who come from broken homes etc only continue that way because no one has taken them by the hand and made an effort to show them a better way, a new life, love, compassion and genuine care.

An English newspaper asked its readers this question: “Who are the happiest people on earth?” There were the four prize winning answers: A craftsman or artist whistling over a job well done. A little child building sand castles. A mother, after a busy day, bathing her baby. A doctor who has finished a difficult and dangerous operation and saved a human life.
Forgiveness frees your mind of hate. Freedom comes with love and forgiveness. Freedom for both parties comes with humble forgiveness. Forgiveness is the path to repair the relationship that was hurt and reconciliation. Its removing an enemy and gaining personal inner-peace and a friend.

In reality they are drilling holes in your boat behind your back, and when they get what they want from you they will jump out into their own secure boat and let you drown.

Know your feelings, your thoughts, your desires, your instincts and what suits your heart and character, and then do what you want. You were not born to please the crowd, you were born for much more than that.
You were born to be where you need to be.

I was reading some old notes that I had of the The Parable of the Prodigal Son. The story is about having faith in someone, knowing that he or she will fail, fall, crumble in very hard harsh lessons, then come back home sad, wiser and broken, needing love, protection and a chance to start over all over again.
The one waiting is deeply saddened, full of love, does not judge the one who left from the trials and struggles or the heartache the wanderer has caused them over the years. But rather sees the end result, the wiser more knowledgable soul that comes back finally understanding what it was like to be prideful, arrogant, and how easily a person can be hurt, used and abused by other people who are only in life for themselves.
○
The one who left would have had certain feelings towards the one/s left behind, this would have all changed when they became humbled, had more knowledge about life, people and living, and about themself. Sometimes distance teaches us of the value of the one/s left behind, their real worth and their ongoing suffering love becomes more obvious and needed.
Returning with a new sad suffering soul, humbled, even ashamed, but a new person, much different from the one who they were when they left, this is the end result of this journey. This is someone who has been tried as if over a furnace, tried like silver, put back together by the Potter, soulfully Born Again.
⚪
The one who was left behind waited with understanding what the other was going to go through.
They didn’t judge the one who leaves as a fool, or stupid, for taking so long to figure out the truth of life and what was of real value, because time and harsh struggles makes a person wise in a short time and teaches lessons that a book and classroom cannot teach, lessons that sink deep within and from them comes a new soul as the phoenix from the ashes of the old soul, who this person was once but will never return to being ever again.

A man who was a tyrant insisted that his wife arise early in the morning to prepare his breakfast. He was very demanding with regard to her care of the house, required a strict accounting of the money spent on groceries, clothes for the children, etc. Then he died.
Later she married a man who was the opposite, loving, tender, considerate, unselfish. One day she was going through some of the effects of her first husband and found a list of all the things he had required her to do. Then to her amazement, she realized she was doing all those things for her present husband without being required to do them. She was doing them voluntarily because she loved him.
