However, as you turn it around, it has a number, a value. In my case, it was a 50-cent Euro coin, and it presents a choice. I can trade it for something and in turn it becomes something else. An object or service of value to me; and something of value to the person who receives it in the process of exchange.
The reality we experience, no matter its nature: be it negative, complicated, positive, easy, difficult, uncertain, different, draining, sad, presents something to be looked at. Something to take notice of, because it is in front of us. It may take us some time to examine, understand, and become aware of what the hidden message or learning is, but trust that it is there. Waiting for you to acknowledge it, feel into it as necessary, and turn it around with a little perspective and a little curiosity to find a gem.
