spent v.4

not much to say here except that this is one of those rare prompts that seems to kinda mean something, its vague, it open ended, it can inspire more than a tightly focused and predictiable outcome.

its not just about spending it also about worth, quality.

its one thing to throw time, effort, money, and emotional stock into an investment that you are pretty certain to get a return on.

its another to do the same and have it blow up in your face.

and realize that what you had to offer is worthless.

like all those shares in the dot com start up companies.

What you have to offer has never been worthless... maybe you invested in people who couldn't appreciate it ... maybe you didn't get the expected return on investment, but the return is still there. You weren't investing in dot com start ups... you were investing in life! The journey, the growth, the experience is worth more than you give it credit for. A life's only value is in living it. (((love you)))
