MONEY ~ THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!

I constructed these comments in response to an existing post, but by the time I'd finished letting the creative expression flow, I'd lost track of the original thread in the box to the left, and hadn't thought to make a note of the poster's name thinking I could just add my reply to those already there :-/ *Sigh* lol ... *Yep, round and round we go, were we'll end no one knows!' :-D hahaha So decided just to post it as a new topic thread of interest (hopefully) anyway. So here goes ...

Money, like everything else that exists is only ‘one’ form of energy … an energy of exchange! It’s the connotations that we put on it in it’s current form that tend to make it evil in our thinking. Look at the expressions we have created over the years, i.e. ‘Money is the root of all evil’…. ‘Dirty old dough’, etc etc. lol Because when we assess someone else as having more of ‘it’ (money) than we have, and we feel like we’re struggling, he say: … “Hey, hooow EVIL IS THAAAT!!” :-/ hehehe We still ‘allow’ ourselves to be locked into beliefs that if he/she has more of anythinggg, then reasonably there has got to be less left for the rest of us … i.e. the perpetuation of belief’s in ‘Limitation’ … and beliefs are very powerful, for they recreate for us accordingly in our personal world! :( Yet we have also been advised by all the wise sages back thru time ‘that Life is Abundant and that there IS plenty for all!’ This proves itself to be true to us all the time, too! For have you ever noticed that when the bills rush in and we allow ourselves to step into a space of: “Oh I’ve not going to worry about ‘this’ … the money WILL arrived to pay these fella’s when its due … IT DOES!!” :-D Yet when we lock ourselves into the opposite of this perspective, of: “Oh my goodness I don’t know hooow I’m going to pay these bills this month … I’ll probably have to get another job to get me through!” :( Then generally ‘that’s’ what we often find ourselves HAVING to do, equally!! :-/ Why? Because expectation creates accordingly for us, and we’re all powerful creators of our own experience (however irritating it feels to keep being reminded of this … it’s actually true!! Hehe) Put it to the test yourself … Life really IS abundant if we expect it to be … Or equally ‘lacking’ when we expect it to be :( Life IS abundant … there are certain natural Laws of the Universe that ensure this! But these Laws are not out there to ‘wet-nurse’ us. They are there to assist us to step into the realisation of our ‘true power’ as Creators, and to realise that every resource we require for a fulfilling and happy life exists within each of us first and foremost … in our thoughts. So none of these laws will ever determine … “Oh poor George, he’s buying into the belief that things are tough and that he always dips out … let’s prove to him he’s wrong!” Nope it just doesn’t work that way. If George chooses to expect lack and hardship, then ‘Life’ simply respects his choices in belief in such and provides accordingly ‘like for like’, as a consequence. Yet when we decide to play with the other extreme of ‘expecting’, for example abundance instead (even in small ways to begin with) … this is what we find ‘Life’ equally supporting us in x

Barter however, is the next energy of exchange we are currently moving into exploring whereby food and sources ‘can’/’and already are’ in many cases, being exchanged more for services rendered ‘like for like’. We are already seeing greater evidence of this here in New Zealand, where already fruit is being exchanged amongst neighbors for vegetables; livestock for muscle-power (i.e. building and renovations assistance and or materials; gardening or landscaping expertise. Even in the health field some practitioners are beginning to offer their services to those currently ‘financially challenged’ (i.e. beneficiaries, the aged; solo parents; the unemployed) for domestic or catering services. It’s becoming more the norm now to hear people saying things like: “Okay, I’ll fix yr computer if you’ll fix my fridge!” (and similar such arrangement that don’t involve the need for … ‘dirty old dough’ (lol) at all). In business and commerce too now here we are seeing much more of this different kind of energy exchange - mechanics fixing cars for accountancy services; plumbers providing their skills to the fisherman in exchange for a freezer full of a freshly caught bounty of fish and seafood for the family. A couple of pigs for a cow, and on and on. Yet not at all are we hearing: ‘Barter is the root of all evil”, or: “Dirty old Barter” :-D hehee No! Because everyone now suddenly feels equal in ‘knowing’ that each has a specific skill or talent to offer in exchange for something else desired. It’s an interesting area of exploration to discover that a simple change of perspective is actually ‘magically’ (it would seen) capable of making a huge change to the quality of a Life! :) It’s also an extremely empowering and fun experience to explore this alternative, as opposed to the choice of staying on our personal pity pot and looking around with pouting lip (so to speak) hehe Not that ‘either’ is the right or way … although both WILL most definitely create a vastly different experience to enjoy or not! :-)
