Silver Dollar
Suppose your life is a shiny silver dollar. How would you use this dollar? Would you spend it the first chance you get, or save it for something special? Maybe you’d buy a gift for someone worthy, or miserly hoard it for the grave. Perhaps you’d righteously flip it to a beggar. Of course the wisdom of our time mandates you invest your cherished dollar with the highest bidder. I’ve thought about this a lot. Quite possibly our life has become too precious, and therefore more difficult for us to give away. Yet spend it we must, as it always disappears, a few pennies here... a few pennies there...
