Here's more to the Land of Lincoln

and anywhere - in anytime (before and after)

I watch Antiques Roadshow and see some amazing things of great value. These objects fall and rise in value over several decades and centuries.
I follow the net worth of celebrities as they too age and pass.
The value of land and home ownership vastly rises over time also. Some people are born poor and die rich and vice versa.
I'm here to tell you-pennies, quarters or dollars, it doesn't matter!
The value in any person's life is the journey. Their effort, emotion and lessons are all priceless!
For instance- in the Land of Lincoln
All your dreams, hopes and faith, will one day become just dust in the wind- unless you plant a seed and leave your mark- etched and woven into the next generation. Just as was done for you/ to you, as a gift -for purpose.
Remember to use "your gift" wisely.
You have enormous value- it can't be measure in finite terms!
