It is valuable but can not be saved
What is the only thing that is valuable beyond any treasure in the world?
It can can not be saved or traded.
Once gone it can never be gained again. Yet it can be shared without cost.
It is TIME

Prayer
If you knew I answered whenever you spoke to me, would you be still enough to hear me?
Prayer is Asking
Meditation is Listening

Aging
There are three consciousness planes we can inhabit—three
perspectives, we could call them—from which we can view our situation.
As Number One, we are our egos—our bodies, our personalities, our
every-day selves. As Number Two, we are our astral selves, what I've
called our souls. And as Number Three, we are—well, let's not give it a
name, because wars have been fought over what to call the Nameless. So
for the moment, let's just call it Number Three.
When it comes to aging, we have a choice about where we're going to position ourselves, as we watch the phenomena that getting older entails. We can look at them from the ego's point of view, from Number One, and get all lost in our clingings, and our fears, and our dramas. Or we can flip the channel and look at those same events from the soul's point of view. We'll find that everything changes with that shift in perspective. The situation itself doesn't change, mind you, but our experience of it becomes a whole different thing. The soul won't be busy getting lost in all the "stuff" the way the ego is—the soul is just appreciating the incarnation, appreciating the unfolding of it all.
