Beyond the root of all evil, money is…
A lifeline to the resources that sustain us.
Often the difference between life and death.
The overseer on the modern plantation.
The sufficient condition for social interaction.
The great unequalizer.
The Midas touch of human relationships.
Our addictive undoing.
The culmination of the old paradigm.
The limit of our humanity.
The lowest denominator of infinity.
The zero sum of our abundance.
The price of our dignity.
The excuse for our disillusionment.
Our unfixable fix.
A stairway to nowhere…
The crass reduction of purpose into objectification.
The value of scarcity.
The $ign of the times.
The incentive for our extinction.
And yet the reality of our condition is we must seek money to survive another day.
By acknowledging the gilded shackles that bind us, we illuminate the path to our fulfillment.
