There is a reason why
A rich man entering heaven
Is harder than a camel going
Through the eye of needle
Not because being rich
Being affluent and wealthy
Is in any way a sin
Or all rich are automatically damned
Since many of God's chosen
In the Bible were immensely rich
Like Jeff Bezos of our time
Or Bill Gates
But the difference between
The rich that enters heaven
Versus
The rich that cannot
Is just like everyone else
For the same reason
That even the poor
Cannot enter heaven
That is no matter how much
Or how little they have
No matter how much
Or how little they give
The rich having given much
Feels proud of having done so
And the poor having given little
Feels they have done enough
So this rich man Jesus was
Referring to in the New Testament
With chance of entering heaven
Less than camel through needle's eye
Must be someone who doesn't credit God
But believes all his possessions
Came from his own hard work
Thanking no one but himself
Thus when such man is generous
More than anyone else around
There is never the feeling of shame
For not being more giving
But rather feels accomplished
Even proud
For having given more than others
Feeling they've done more than enough
Unlike that poor woman
Who gave up the last penny
Giving all she had
Even though she had almost none
Probably feeling inadequate
Since it is not how much one gives
Or how much one has
But with what attitude
To whom the credit is given
And humility
That determines the fate
