Have you ever had someone tell you "money is energy"? Do you believe them? Or do you scoff and think "yeah right"? I've been on both ends of the spectrum, but I've only recently realized how true that statement really is. I believe that money IS energy, which means that money is also NOT the root of all evil if it is merely energy. The emotion behind it perpetuates the evil or downward spiral.
You will never find your bank account increasing if your gratitude is decreasing. You will never find your bank account increasing if you have a block to receiving. Something Sunny Dawn Johnston said once really stuck with me. She said she really doesn't use the word "grateful", but instead says "appreciate" because of the bank account analogy. Money "appreciates" and you build interest.
If you are negative in your mindset, you'll be negative in your bank account. If you're positive, vibrating high and pay off debts, your credit goes up. This is just simply the law of attraction at work. No one ever got everything good in the world if they were an ungrateful, whiny, selfish person.
I realized recently that all of the negative emotions that sometimes come with money are just a symptom of a bigger problem and a deeper emotion about a deeper issue. For instance, someone who feels appreciated in other ways wouldn't be as quick to be resentful toward someone whom needs their help for financial reasons. However, if the person is not only relied on for finances but also relied on and neglected in return emotionally, physically, mentally etc., the resentment will be even more amplified.
There is also another saying that goes "people who feel appreciated will always do more than what is expected." Especially if you are an empath, you will often get leeches and energy vampires, sucking all of the mental, emotional, financial and other energies from you. This is why you need to practice self love and protect yourself from this, way before you say yes to the next person who needs your help.
Just like the airplane analogy says, you need to put your oxygen mask on and THEN help those around you. If you're gone or empty, you cannot be expected to give anything you don't even have yourself. You need to love and appreciate YOURSELF (by setting boundaries with others and practicing self love) before you can appreciate others and before they can appreciate you. If you feel like you're taking care of everyone else and getting nothing mentally, emotionally, physically or energetically back, you're not appreciating your own energy, boundaries, time, love, money etc. You're going to be numb and depleted and not have or want to give. But if you feel loved and appreciated for just being YOU, by yourself AND those you give to, you will feel that and WANT and be ABLE to give more.
If you ARE going through a hard time emotionally, appreciate it. Yes, appreciate it. Appreciate and look for what it's teaching you. It's a valuable and important lesson that you're missing in your wallowing. If you can't appreciate the lesson yet, at least shift your focus. Appreciate what's going right and more good will come from and appreciate from that feeling.
If you don't get your emotional, mental, physical, spiritual and energetic needs all met, you will be unbalanced, depleted and find yourself feeling negatively toward those around you whom you give all or at least most of the aforementioned things to. None of us have everything. Relationships are meant to fill those empty spaces so we can all work together. But if you find that you are feeling depleted in any of those areas, you need to look at how open you are to receive and then how willing others are to have a balance in the relationship. Adjust accordingly.
