It's Not About Money - Personal blog of Trisha Rapley, Australian Author.

It's not about how much money you get or have, but how you use it or whether it defines you. It's not what you can buy or have brought for yourself, but what you buy for others without complaint.

It's about how far you're willing to go for someone when the money runs out, when all you have left is time, not a bank account.

It's about the priceless things you provide rather than everything you've brought to fill the void of your absence when you're not around or not paying attention.

When you measure how much something is worth by the way it is used, does that not make us materialistic? Does that not make us wrong to value things over people and memories that should be created instead?

When your God is the value of money, your belly, or the material things you acquire in life, you lack discipline; you lack the fundamental core of being a good human, and one who serves God above all other things.

One where money is at the cost of your soul and your loved ones. Where memories are lost because our value in important things diminishes through neglect and accountability to do what is right, not comfortable or habitual.

Our purpose in this life is to love in a way that doesn't brag or remind people how much something costs, because in that gesture is a reminder of a love that isn't real, a love defined by what can be brought, not given out of love.

Financial stability and freedom are not about the numbers in your bank account, but how many lives you changed by giving it away with no price tag attached.
