Sex and Money

Hi, I'd like to sit awkwardly in a pile of rocks and leaves and talk about uncomfortable things today...
Sex and money.

Ya see, these 2 subjects have ALWAYS been taboo....especially if you are a midwest "nice, Christian". Quite often I would hear "EVIL" as an adjective used to describe these words....and tbh it is CRAZY hard to change your belief system when you have had decades of your life telling you one thing.

And maybe you are the same....there is MAJOR GUILT AND SHAME around these subjects and I've come to find out WHY and it seems to be the SAME reasons we judge a LOT of things...

There are people in this world doing BAD things with sex and money. There is sex trafficking. There is greed. And there continues to be selfish people NOT doing good in this world. When we see that then our belief of "BAD" and "WRONG" is solidified.

But the story and the REAL truth is this...those are "BAD" examples. Let's take for example, ME & YOU.
Are we GOOD people? Are we GIVING people? If we had the love and money to GIVE to make our relationships and this world a better place then isn't it up to US to TRY to do what's RIGHT?!?!

If we had MORE money couldn't we give it to those in need MORE?! If we thought sex was beautiful rather than shameful wouldn't it be easier to love?! ( & Yes y'all, 5 love languages includes this )

What if MORE good people could give more time, energy, love and money towards bettering the world?
Supporting organizations, stopping sex trafficking & feeding the hungry? Would it help save marriages when there wasn't shame around the way we looked at sex or our bodies?!


Anyhow, no I don't have this all figured out but a few things are certain in my life. I AM a good person and because of the better relationship that I now have with sex and money I am kinder and more loving to myself & those around me.

If you need to dig deep in these subjects too then do it. We CAN see other perspectives and tbh I feel MORE worthy to have love and money in my life NOW more than ever. I hope you see you are worthy for these things too.
