Our True Currency

Relationships with people and music go through the same stages.  First, you might really like (platonically or not) a piece or someone.  Then, you become bored with them (and perhaps a bit annoyed). Then, you accept them (it) for what they are with all their flaws.  X is just that way! Of course, you don’t have to choose to continue to associate with a person or a piece of music. No matter what, though, you have to give them your attention--and (people) give you theirs.  It’s a swapping of attention. Even with music, you might as well make the attention you spend on it worth your time. Do something interesting. For people, be kind and mutually helpful and respectful. Above all, understand the value of attention.  It’s the modern world’s true form of currency.
