Losing wealth and status doesn’t have to be a failure. Perhaps it’s just the natural way of life.
Here is today’s haiku: Downward Mobility
Ascending no more;
fallen leaves can fertilize
providing free mulch
High Coo – Downward Mobility
Life Matters
CHOOSE JOY
Life Matters 
As long as “ascending no more” doesn’t mean de-scending! I suppose this fits well with Thich Naht Hahn’s writing on aimlessness and ending the constant striving upwards?
