"Out of college, money spent
See no future- pay no rent."
- You Never Give Me Your Money, Abbey Road, The Beatles
Today I had my Beatles playlist on repeat and I came across this song. I've probably heard it a million times before, but now, as I trudge thru this quarter-life crisis, it seems especially poignant. I sang along at the top of my lungs and instead of being depressed at the statement, I felt free. Right then, I fitfully declared:
I've got no money, but I am rich beyond compare.
I've got no money, but my wealth lies above, below and WITHIN me.
Thanks to this immortal band- who, to this day, speak undeniable truth. The statement is disheartening, but they still know how to make it sound o sOoO good and soulful.
friends, know where your wealth is! the future lies in what we do today.
namaste,

ps. big ups to my dad who taught me what real music is about. :)
