Strip It All Away

We are each on a mission. You have been deployed here in this realm. Only you can learn what that purpose is.

"On the surface, an intelligible lie; underneath, the unintelligible truth..."

Milan Kundera, "The Unbearable Lightness of Being"

I’ve been contemplating abundance, as these last few weeks have offered a great deal to my family.

Abundance in all manner of nuanced frequency can be dangerous. Perceived abundance has taken us to the brink of apocalypse. Capitalism is so inherently linked to gratification through the pursuit of a never ending acquisition of abundance that it is willing to destroy the world in its pursuit of wealth.

And yet the gifts that truly resonate are fundamentally linked to a relinquishing of that which we have acquired, both in the material and emotional realms.
