The Weight of Value

Length44m

About this audiobook

You've spent hours scrolling feeds, everything instantly yours—no wait, no true cost, just hollow smoothness that leaves meaning adrift. Instant access killed the weight of value, erasing scarcity, anticipation, and commitment through endless reversibility. The Weight of Value invites you to rebuild it with ritual and refusal, noticing where your own choices lack gravity.
