The Second 50

Feel a sense of freedom … and loss

What would you do if you lost all your possessions?

It wouldn’t be all bad. Perhaps a chance to start over.

But it would be a significant moment.

To have nothing. There are so many choices. Perhaps too many.

And would I make the same choices? Do I go with familiarity and knowing, or lean into a new sense of unencumbered freedom to have different things than before.

Be grateful for what you do have, friends.

    I would feel naked and empty at first reaction. Then, I would feel grateful, that I matter, not possessions… imagination will take us all everywhere. Money is material means to an end created by a human being, not by nature or science.
