With the right person, money is an invaluable tool capable of being used to fill many voids. The giver in giving builds their Character in the process of letting it go.

Carly; First I thank you for your comment because these comments mean so much to me. I jotted those line down after hearing a news article relating to how those with money sway our justice system in their favor no matter what the crime. I can point to those in the entertainment and sports industries as examples.

I think some money can be trash talk. May all the money that crosses your palm, sing a sweet melody. May you use it to bless your family and others who are less fortunate. Merry Christmas to you.

The purpose of money is to buy freedom and with effort one can learn that this can be an inverse relationship. We trade life energy for money and can't get life energy back, so it's best to use it wisely and carefully. Good, mind-filling write.
