MONEY AND ABUNDANCE
Money is a mathematical measure of a person's earthly influence.
Wealth is commonly vilified by those who have never encountered it. Many people go through life believing that the pursuit of money is the cause of all evil—forgoing the fact that often money can solve life's most heartbreaking tribulations.
Is the money a mother uses to take care of her child bad? Is the money an artist receives in exchange for years of practice and hardship evil? Is the money that a corrupt company pays to its employees evil?
Money has no feeling, no voice, no soul. When you are hungry, you cannot eat paper or gold. The same money that can be used to hurt can also be used to heal. For the dictator, money is a means of weapons and death. For the beggar, money is a means of feeding and living.
To pursue a life of Abundance
This planet is rich enough for all people in all places to live in the joys of abundance. A life of Abundance is a life filled to the brim, overflowing from its edges—a freedom to help those around you because you no longer need to help yourself.
The value of money is measured in the hands of those who hold it.
For a beggar, a hundred is a lot; For a millionaire, a hundred is not much. A billionaire can save hundreds of thousands of lives simply by giving food, medicine, and shelter to those who don't have any. How many lives can the poor save?

With effort, poverty is ephemeral.
The path of each person's life is hidden: the rich are born without knowing their wealth, just as the poor and their poverty are. While you may think that the struggles you are facing right now are undeserved, know that they are simply impermanent and temporary. An empire will fall so that greater empires can be created from its ashes; A life will fall apart so that a bigger future can be built with its pieces. Find peace knowing that the darkest moments in your life are just prerequisites for the life of Abundance that you are meant to have.
