"true wealth is of the heart,not of the purse."

Pathros

Patriarch of Antioch & All the East, 1846-'94

I believe

 this quote means that wealth is not based on money. You are truly wealthy if you have a heart of gold. Having a heart of gold by being nice, caring, sweet, helpful and choosing the right, etc. Being wealthy will not come from the stacks of money you have or how rich you are, or how you are/look. You can have a beautiful heart of gold and that will help you come more father in life and wealthier than someone who's not. Being rich and having lots of money is not being wealthy. What most rich people do is want more and be selfish with with what they have. You have good wealth based on whats in the inside not the outside. Money cant buy you happiness but having a heart of gold can. Its not always about being wealthy and making your self feel better, its about having good wealth and helping not only your self but others feel better. Being wealthy from the heart will make you a wealthier person than a wealthy person. An example is a poor man who has nothing will give and not get while a rich man wont give and still  get or will give only to get even more. Eventually all those who are rich end up nothing and always lack of love something you cant buy while those who give eventually will get good back and never lack of love.Rather be poor and be happy than be rich and not happy.
