Same As When You Came

When you are assessing your earthly worth
Please do not exclude your spiritual value here on earth.
Treasures are not measured in monetary terms
Nor are they measured in any physical evaluation. This is learned!

All our treasures that we cherish, making life more complete,
Proliferate according to our efforts to improve and compete.
All treasures are to be treasured but do make sure
Which are temporary and which will forever live and endure.

Cultivate awareness to differentiate between the two,
The one that is forever and that which you will leave behind. You knew
Your body was only a physical vehicle to traverse this planet;
And you'll return empty handed, as when you came to this planet.
