I have been talking to my mom a lot lately about life and what is really valuable. Even if you don't have a dollar or a Bitcoin or any other "currency" to your name, you are still rich beyond measure. There is a lot of talk on here about cryptocurrencies. And I am definitely for ANYTHING that can peacefully overthrow government and the current financial system. But what never seems to get talked about is what has real value.
Love, time, attention/focus, energy, dreams/desires, imagination/creativity: these are the real currencies of life. Everyone has access to all of the above, no matter who they are, where they are, or how much they "own." We can never really own anything anyway. When you die or transition to your next incarnation, you take nothing but who you were (your experiences and memories) with you.
If we truly want to create a better world, it is important that we focus on those things that really matter: What kind of a person are we? Are we acting from a place of love, cooperation, and abundance every moment or are we acting from a place of fear, competition, and lack? Are we doing unto others as we would have them do unto us? Are we truly being authentic to ourselves and heeding the siren's song of our heart? If this was our last day on Earth, could we truly die peacefully and with no regrets?
People get so focused on making money, owning stuff, investing, insuring their wealth, etc. that it seems like it becomes what their life is all about. And that seems really sad to me. You cannot take it with you. It is not what has real and lasting value in a life. Those who live a life filled with love are truly the richest people in the world.
