I was reading drippy1's post on CMI .Visualization is great and I wish him the most success. But I have reservations about wanting a big office and makeing a pile of money. Acheivments are great as long as God comes first. My visualization is to acquie spiritual attributes and if wealth should come my way, be so detached that I could walk away from it any time I wanted to It is a rare and wonderful thing to see the virtue of detachment in someone and maybe I have only seen it a couple of times in my life. I started a businees that a friend of mine named ,told me about a saying in the Middle East , "The potter always drinks from a cracked cup" This is similar to the saying that the coblers children always have holes in their shoes. Only there are other meanings that are far deeper. Omar Khayam wrote a poem about how we should fill our cup with the good things in life because soon the cup will be turned over and return to clay or dust. We are all made of dust shaped by the potter
