I still remember buying vinyl records when I was a teenager. And when I was about 20, compact discs came along. This, of course, required a new player. A CD player. These were available for the stereo system - and there were even mobile ones for on the road. There was no comparison in size with today's MP3 player or smartphone, which today can hold many times the capacity of music compared to the past. So you had to invest in your own, new hardware, the device. And today, about 30 years later, these devices are almost antiques, collectors' items. So one can justifiably ask oneself: was this investment worthwhile, if the device is no longer the thing with which one listens to music today? There are many such moments in life when, after a short or long time, you ask yourself: was the investment worthwhile? Not only in material things. Also in relationships. What does it mean to be worthwhile? How do we measure it? How do we judge that? Perhaps a day to reflect on this - and to appreciate all that we have been allowed to experience - regardless of the investment. Each of these experiences has made us rich.
I wish you an extraordinary day!
