Have You Looked in the Box?
There’s an old parable about a beggar who sat on a box, asking for coins day after day. One day, a passerby asked him what was inside the box. He admitted he didn’t know. When encouraged to look, he finally opened it—only to find it filled with gold. All along, he had been sitting on a treasure far greater than anything he had ever begged for. Aren’t we a little like that beggar? We spend so much of our lives pursuing things that are external to us, forgetting that the greatest treasure is already within us. The beggar didn't have to believe there was something special in the box, he just had to open it and look. The Wisdom Years Program is simply an invitation to look for yourself. To gently turn inward and discover what's there. As you reflect on the Wisdom Keys, notice what arises for you.
