Meaning
This reads as a meditation on attention as something useful but not possessive. Awareness arrives, does its work, and then passes through us, much like wealth that is spent well rather than hoarded, bringing both comfort and challenge while it lasts. It lands in quiet moments of reflection, when someone notices a clear insight and then has to let it move on.
