TIME AS CURRENCY HAS A COST.

-


"Time is the most valuable thing a man can spend." – Theophrastus.


Time wasted causes depression. Time anticipated wasted causes anxiety. Boredom makes us uneasy and tense. Living in the moment - Priceless.

So much is said and thought of time. To me, it is not a currency but a source of measurement, and this too is probably not helpful or effective. 

Being in the moment is absolutely helpful and productive. But, there are so many factors that pull on our attention and energy. For instance - you have a long weekend off from work - and the moment you leave the office - you start to count down the hours to you have to return - instead of enjoying the time away. What is up with that?

We are all tethered to what maybe instead of being enraptured to what is. We always need an adversary and to be at odds when we could accept there here and now and bask in the glorious time that we have. We never know how much of it we have so - why not enjoy what we have and not worry about some arbitrary end date and just be here Now!

The support of those in your community. This is what is needed to help all of us, especially those of us that struggle daily with the unseen or non-material affliction.  Loving-kindness, compassion, empathy are all expressions that we are interconnected. If you cannot connect ask yourself why? If you are not able to hold a door, lend a hand, yield, or show support what are you doing? We are all in this together. We thrive when we can join togethe

Come what may, whatever tomorrow may bring, we need to deal with it and move on! The world is in pieces and we can not change it or fix it with the same thinking that got us here. Greed and Selfishness will not be tolerated moving forward. The truth will be first and foremost the determining factor on every decision and petty bullshit will not be tolerated. Stupidity and ignorance - willful or otherwise will be called out and not be allowed to continue. We are all in this together the Social Compact must be adhered to and practiced and encouraged if we are to survive and evolve beyond this moment in time. "Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go." ~ Hermann Hesse There is a lot of misinformation out there. Conspiracy theories are running rampant. Fake news, disinformation, social media is inundated and saturated with memes and cartoons depicting gallows humor a person doesn't know what to believe - so we cower in our c
