What is Money?

I have been very blessed. At several points of my life, God has allowed different people to speak encouraging, affirming or inspiring words to me. As I was sharing with my Mum about my personal convictions in my life (including the kind of job that I am looking for), I recalled this quote that someone once shared with me before.

This person asked, "What is money?" & he answered... "Money is our life in another form."

I find this statement so true & this quote has stuck in my mind for a long time. It's true, we are actually exchanging our time for the money that we earn from our work. Many people work their years of life away, striving for earthly gain, only to lose it in the end. Some give a lot of their earnings to the doctors too!

I believe it is time that we ask ourselves, what we are actually seeking for & turn towards the right direction that would really give us fulfillment in life.

I am so glad that I still remember to share this, whenever I have the opportunity to share it with someone (for example, that IT staff in my company). I remember seeing his eyes 'light up' when I shared this with him... & I felt both comforted & glad to be able to share this revelation with him. If I recalled correctly, I even overheard him, sharing this with someone else! Yippee! Praise God! =)
