At the end of a movie it is stated that there is now, at this bloated stage of our world population, enough resources for everyone's need. But not greed.
I find it an interesting concept to play with. Imagine if you will what it would be to have enough, minus the stuff we need for others to see. Enough to live a life of kings, at least as much as kings were thought by Huckleberry Finn. Enough to make life worth the toil in happiness in deed and exhilarated discovery. To live a life enough to tell your story at the nightly feast where stories shared are a source of awe to those who stayed behind to cook the meal we eat.
Have you ever thought what it would be like to live that way each day. And have you given thought to what would have to go if you should live in such a world. And what you gain, should that be what you live. Have you ever thought of what you leave behind to live your life like this. Gone the guilt and shame, gone the pain and blame. All of it gone in the blink of an eye. Have you ever thought what it would be like to leave behind such stuff?
To hear that others say there is enough right now is something that makes me smile. Just say when.
