Treasure: A Musing…

When thinking about the word “treasure”, great mystery comes to mind.

Treasure is hidden, secretive, out of sight, not apparent, and therefore precious, valuable, and worthy.

Treasure needs to be sought after, hunted, searched, adventured, worked for, discovered… and when found protected, cherished, and treasured….

It is beautiful when our language gives us a word to describe a thing and uses the same word to explain what to do with it.

What are you searching for?

Who is guiding you?

Are you guiding yourself?

Are you listening? Looking for the signs?

Are you willing to take the road less traveled?

Do you find comfort in the mystery? The unknown?

When you feel lost, how do you keep on the treasure hunt?

Who, what, and where are precious to you?

How do you treasure it?

What do you value?

Why do you value it?

Is it finite?
