What purpose does money serve in your life?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 17, 2007:
It's one small piece of the bigger picture. It doesn't define me (phew, I'm grateful for THAT).
Most of my adult life I've been sucked into the 'society generated illusion' that money defines who we are and our level of success.
In just two weeks, I am walking away from the corporate world in order to be true to my dreams and aspirations. When I tell people (especially my family) they are quick to judge. They think I'm crazy because I'm giving up a nice salary, having my insurance paid for, 401(k) contributions...etc... I've been told I am being irresponsible and I should let go of all this "nonsense" about writing books, writing songs, playing music. It makes me SMILE - becuase, in the end, it makes the story even sweeter.
As I move toward my future - I see it filled with the promise of prosperity and abundance. But there is no dollar amount attached to that promise. All I know is I am worthy of all the goodness that comes my way, in whatever form that is. I embrace that thought.
There will be bills to pay, and money needed for all the day to day costs of living. There will advertising, promotions and marketing fees. There will be insurance, taxes, yada yada yada.... I welcome it all!
So to finally answer the question on what purpose money serves in my life:
It's one small piece of the larger picture. I don't stress about money. I am convinced that I will be blessed with all I need as I move closer to my pupose in life.

Awesome…people really do believe just because they have money, they have security. All is an illusion. Things come and things go. Such is life…
Remember the lilies of the field they never spin or toil….

Blessings for all the abundance in life: creativity, love, friendship, hope….and some money along the way to meet our obligations…and help us to be.
So…
this money thing really has me these days…I feel like it’s out dated. When I do exchanges with people for services, it feels so right/good. No money is exchanged and I don’t judge upon time or equal value because what is that anyway but VALUE we put on it… from the “money society.”
Money is “old world” to me, and feels quite odd I must say these days…
I think that was #2 on the last blog I posted. (((HUGS)))
