Treasures on earth...

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:  For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Matthew 6:19~21

When I was burgled in recently (yes - these things do happen in Japan, too!) I was thankful my passport and ID were not taken.  Some USD was taken, but nothing else.   Many were surprised and how sanguine I was over the loss of the USD.  Is is only money - there are more important treasures in my life than money.
