Sacred currency

In today's world, nothing - or very little - is sacred.

We are so rich we throw our treasure, our pieces of eight, away. Cold Canyon, the landfill, so named because it was a canyon, has been a mountain for years.

We even trash other people's gods.

In tomorrow's world, everything will be sacred.

Will we understand and respect that — before so much of our abundance is trashed that whatever is left becomes precious?

A shift in perspective is necessary.




We can pay attention to what we have rather than what we don't have.


And, as Tolle tells us, all we have is the moment -

so all that's necessary is to attend to the moment.


Thus are the lilies of the field clothed in raiment fit to the gods.
