Let’s say someone bought a building with a bank loan. If the landlord fails to pay the interest, the bank is forced to pay the principal. If the principal isn’t paid, the bank can put the building up for auction, even though the landlord owns it. Interest is the cost of borrowing money over time. The reason I can purchase a building without using my own money is that I can leverage time through interest. When we say time is money, it doesn’t just mean to save time and live diligently. It emphasizes that time truly represents money. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
A wise person advises us not to hold grudges against anyone in our lives. This is because if I foster a grudge, even if it’s physically disconnected with each other, that grudge will eventually interfere with my life. Blessings and grudges also operate beyond my time. It’s just problematic because it doesn’t align with the timing I desire, and our lives are intertwined with an inevitable fate that transcends time in this way.
