What Does Money Mean to You?

Well, we all know we learn so early what our priorities are.
Maybe it is an inborn awareness of the real values that are, by far,
The basics of life itself. Money in and of itself is of no value. It's what
It represents and will bring to our life that defines what is and what is not.

Anything on earth can be viewed out of context and lose its own meaning.
It's when some bring their own warped values to misrepresent real meaning
That meanings and values get misplaced, according to where you're coming from.
It's when values get out of balance and misrepresented that life sounds the alarm.

Money represents earth's acquisitions. A medium of exchange, it stands alone.
But in the final analysis, it will finally be made known
That the spiritual values that can not be bought and sold remain above the fray
To define our overview, each in our own personal way.
