The Future May Be Here ......Finally!


An early start has us looking at the sun rise though the gently swaying leaves.  The momentary glimpses of its golden glow says hello like an old friend. 

The forest opens up more and more as we have climbed higher, the view allowing us to see further into our future and our past.  The horizon line seems to have an unsettled precision to it this morning. 

Our ship can not be seen from here but we know it is patiently waiting our return, trusting and faithful.  Beautiful in its dedication, it does not have the choices that we do, would I be that brave? 

Does its heart slowly break in our absence or does it cling to its intention with single mindedness.  We may never know so we get to choose and then take heart in the power of knowing one’s purpose.      

We are getting close to the top and are told of one more major stop.  That if we can get this lesson, financially, the pieces will start to make sense and will have our footing as we move bravely forward in a new economic landscape. 

With all this printing money, borrowing and spending with little concern with who will pay our debts back in the future, with all this living out of balance and on borrowed time, it begs a basic question.

                                  "What is money?"

If we can get clear on this one, if we can understand this, it will all have been worth it.

If we can understand what money is and what it isn’t, we will have a critical financial building block to secure our financial futures. 

I am so excited that we have made it this far together. 

If we can be in a conversation about what money is, it is my belief that the future will never be the same.
