Sewing the seeds of love. Yes, we are in "uncertain" times. As capitalism is a speculative venture, uncertainty was inevitable. You can plan and save, invest wisely and work for years building diverse interests. still, money, and the system that drives it, is volatile. The value of your money has absolutely nothing to do with how hard you worked for it, but you are doomed to measure the loss with real and heaving grief. It is at times like these that perspective is worth far more than its weight in gold.

Love is an attractive investment. Oh sure, romantic love staggers the market indicators like a seismometer riding a kangaroo. The rest however, the love you build with your friends, family and community, why that will pay back in spades especially at "times" like these. How does the value of a supportive word from a friend skyrocket when you are afraid that you might be loosing everything. How wonderfully secure can you be in the fact that no matter how bad this gets, you will not be alone. What if you had invested in love so wisely that you could look in any direction and see the fruits of that love looking back at you.
Now is a good moment to take stock in how your choices have set you up for life. Re-establish a plan of pouring yourself into the things that will bring you the greatest joy. When time is running past so quickly as to count the remainder in tens of years, there is non to squander on perturbations caused by the quest for wealth. With an economy, Things can always get worse. Love has intrinsic value and that value is only effected by your ability to open to it. And if you still need to gamble, one loving word from you just might save the world. Scratch that!

Fear or faith, let your heart decide and we'll see you in the sky. Jonathon
