I used to be cultivating a borderline obsession with obtaining 55 million-dollars, after taxes, so that I would have plenty left over to give away. The more I deepened my association with Mother Nature the more convinced She made me that money is soon to become worthless. Once this message became strong enough and I finally became convinced I felt inspired to reorient myself and my goals in life. I learned from the Spirit of Intent that true wealth is something you can take with you when you die and leave this life. The true treasures of a person are demonstrated in qualities of character. I now agree with Socrates that Virtue expressed is the goal everyone should reach for in life. Yes, the overall quality of a person's character is the treasure that he or she will take with them when they leave this life.
Realistically, I believe we all fall short of living gloriously in this modern world. We all have to deal with failures and backsliding. However, I now believe it's not so much what we accomplished in life as what we truly were aiming to accomplish. As long as we forgive all others their shortcomings we have every Universal Right to forgive ourselves our shortcomings.
So the more we aim for the manifestation of good and wonderful things the more wealthy we become. The more we strive to demonstrate sincere and heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for the wonderful things we have already received the truly wealthier we become.
Fortunate indeed is someone who dies in the midst of a gesture of sincere, heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for all the good and the wonderful in his or her life for such a person enters eternity a very wealthy person indeed!
