Currency

I wonder why we seek static solutions?  It's doomed from the start.  

"There, I'm married, glad that's taken care of."

"There, got my job, I'll just work here until I die."

"There, I talked about money, sex, drugs, discipline, clothes, respect, and work with my kid.  Glad that's out of the way."

This view is patently ridiculous.

Life has a current to it, a flow of give and take, need and bounty, peace and striving.  If we learn to embrace this currency we can find contentment in daily movement, even as it stretches us.
