Lately I’ve been thinking about money, and I stumbled on two theories that somehow feel comforting. The first one says that money isn’t good or bad — it’s just energy. The way we show up in life, our vibes, our mindset… all of that attracts or repels money. It sounds mystical, but I kind of like the idea that my relationship with money reflects my relationship with myself.

The second theory is about having a “money container.” Everyone is born with one, and the size of that container determines how much we can hold. If it’s small, money slips through or overwhelms us. But the container can grow — slowly, with patience, with good habits, with generosity. The more we help people, the bigger it gets. I find that strangely hopeful.

Maybe these ideas sound silly or dreamy to some people, but honestly, financial security is something almost everyone struggles with. The rich, the poor, the in-between. We’re all trying to figure it out.

And somehow, these theories make money feel less scary and more human. They remind me that helping others, keeping good energy, and growing slowly might be enough. And I think this isn’t daydreaming after all — I think it’s just a softer, kinder way to understand survival in the modern world.
