You may feel worthwhile if you have enough of me!

You may either hate me or love me. 

You may work most of your active life to have more of me.

You may worship me like a deity.

You may want to get rid of me as soon as you have me!

You may think I am evil!

You may think I am the key to your happiness
and the actualization of your dreams.

You may stay in a dreaded relationship to have me.

You may leave a relationship because of me.

You may feel worthwhile if you have enough of me!

I am intrinsically abundant.

You have agreed to consider me scarce and valuable.

After all I am just paper and ink!

I have been the source of many conflicts in many families. 

I have also been means of healing for many. 

I am here to have a relationship with you till the end of your life.

I can overwhelm you if you are not clear about your worth!

You desire me for the feeling that it creates in you.

You can have this feeling now
without having me in your hands!

Value and love yourself as you
relate to and value me. 

I am just paper and ink.

 Reviews of "Money"
Reviewed by Odin odin@aflx.com
Reviewed on June 29, 2012
Zen masters would be proud of this. You advance the intrinsic value of money to a level of "modifier" "connector" and most importantly, "a choice." Respect for its essence abounds in this laundry list of potential identities, and within its subtext is the often ignored maxim: the root of all evil IS NOT money. It is the ATTACHMENT to it. I for one only partially subscribe to that posit, and suggest the species also include as part of their association/relationship with money the idea that it is but ONE source of exchange. One mustn't forget how many values of exchange exist beyond money, although money, more often than not, provides the basis and foundation for much of our peace and relaxed nature as humans. This was a well crafted alert. I hope many read it. Thank you for posting.
