Loving - what kind of word is this? Examples and Interpretation

Soon the meaning of the word "covetousness" can be forgotten (this is quite obvious fact). We will try not to let this happen. We will analyze today the meaning of the word, we will select synonyms and explain the examples.

Value

Covetousness is a passion for profit or self-interest. To a very young reader, probably, these words said little. But do not despair. Everything is simple enough. Under this currently outdated definition lies the common people's love of money, property and possession of things. That's the whole riddle.

Covetousness is a passion that is traditionally condemned by the main religions, but, as a rule, causes envy and lust among other people. For example, a person who takes or buys an expensive yacht for a walk along the river, obviously suffers covetousness. On the other hand, why he suffers, perhaps, he enjoys it, as in a well-known joke. Of course, making diagnoses is a thankless task, especially in a world where many literally have been obsessed with figures, coins, salaries and achievements, expressed exclusively in dollar terms. So let's leave this topic for a while and move on to synonyms.

Words and phrases that can be replaced

Through synonyms, it is easier to learn new information, but something suggests that the replacement of the object of research will also have to be explained, but it does not matter. Here is the list:

• Avarice love;
• Lucrivity;
• Love of money;
• Passion for profit;
• Unhealthy consumerism.

Greater love is an obsolete synonym for the phrase "love of money".

It is probably necessary to explain what is unhealthy consumerism. We live in a world where almost everything is very quickly out of fashion, but not out of order: telephones, computers, idols, popular books. Man as if all the time he lives on the needle of new impressions, that is, he constantly needs to excite his mind and his feelings. The same line is packed with a huge number of divorces both in the Western world and in Russia. The dominant emotion is now longing to dispel it, the person spares no effort and does not consider money.

Be afraid of excessive

And here is a synonym for covetousness? It's pretty simple. For the needs of a person with "fattened" needs, the whole machine of Western civilization works, especially in America. Lifestyle clearly shows this: the flow of water, food. But the most obvious is the pillows for the bedroom. Americans adore a huge number of pillows that do not play any functional role, they are used only as an element of decor.

Of course, the love of possession would be easiest to illustrate by the example of each year emerging models of phones and other techniques that people are using to force marketing to buy, but this is a bit trite.

"One, but fiery passion"

Speech, of course, about covetousness is what keeps the world today, its axis. There is nothing shameful in living well. Problems begin when a person collects luxury.

But the modern Russian is difficult to judge for extensive desires. On the one hand, there is a big world where people are constantly getting richer and enjoying life. The secular chronicle does not allow us to forget about how poor we are. Even middle-class people in Russia are poor compared to the stars of Hollywood. On the other hand, the Russian person has behind him the Soviet past, which frightens him with his shadow and makes him go ahead and earn more and more.

"A fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it ..."

The reader, probably, does not understand what all this is and what is so terrible and disgustingly covetous (the meaning of the word has already been considered). He has one significant drawback, which entails a general disintegration of the individual, is oblivion of spiritual values. It is clear that the last phrase is rather blurry. But the visual image of the fairy tale about the golden antelope is remembered clearly. Raja is the victim of his own greed. It is easy to imagine how he, a poor fellow, does not sleep, does not eat, but only thinks how to catch an animal that would bring even more money. It is these "rajas" that some of our modern business figures or officials who are in the service of the sovereign seem to be. But do not abandon them from those riches that themselves float in their hands?

Wedge wedge

Covetousness is a passion for profit, but does a person have a way out of the situation, because times do not choose? It is true, but it is possible to counteract the productive line of behavior with pathological uncreative aspirations. For example, do not think about how good it is to be rich and famous, or how wonderful it would be to get rich, but to reflect on the vocation, your abilities and talents. In other words, try to find yourself in life. And there, you see, the capitals will not keep you waiting, but one should not think about them, but about vital, creative tasks.

Of course, from the side it may seem that millionaires enjoy life. Take, for example, football players. Now only lazy or sickly does not dream to direct stops in sports, but it was not always so. Twenty years ago, football had not yet turned into a business, and when modest young men started their ascent, they did not know what the game would ultimately bring to them. They just chose their path, working hard every day.

This is worth remembering for everyone. Money does not fall from the sky, if a person starts something from scratch, and he has neither powerful relatives nor rich parents. It is necessary to mark the above money, we must set ourselves the ultimate goals. Especially as it is already known what "covetousness" means, so you can not spend it for this time.
