INFINITE SOURCE OF VALUE
INFINITE SOURCE OF VALUE
Value is either created or acquired. We already have it. What another may willing trade you for yours is its fair market value.
Life alone has value. Babies have value. Humans have value. Dirt has value. Water has value as does the air that we breathe. In short, all natural things have value. Natural things also have fair market value, including labor, especially slave labor of old.
"Created" things have value. Created value means, contemplates, particular efforts expended by the owner to establish value in it.
"Acquired" value means that value that is obtained or that which is already possessed.
Yet, beyond whatever value is already created or acquired remains, ever abides, a greater, far vaster, reserve of value yet unseen.
That said, no known economic theory can account for unseen value, any more than than any economic theories can anticipate newly created value. Both are minions of unknown dominions, values newly created and unseen.
Both newly created and unseen values are intangibles, indeed, unknowables. Beyond the pale of quantifying or qualifying, they are, the newly created and the unseen. Each one affords an easy opportunity for persons lacking acquired value to obtain value.
Summoning value from the vaster unknown involves more than praying for it, although prayer, faith and hope do help the process.
Working for it, as though one already had that which is now hoped for in faith, is the quintessential ingredient, above all else.
By their union, created value will have merged with, merged into, unseen value to supply value; this becomes acquired value.
THAT DIVINE source of value is infinite.
