The Phase of Greed

The dissatisfaction of greed, its emptiness, its' widespread disillusion, shows that it is a phase.

What truly lasts is satisfaction, fulness, and meaning.

Every time we engage in satisfying activities, and create fulfillment and meaning, we are actively defeating greed.

It will run on in its hugely destructive phase until the only resource which we have left will be kindness.  

And that will be enough.

Despite all the fear, those who practice kindness will build and rebuild.

We will share, we will support one another, just the way the activists are.

Whatever resources are left, we will see expand through unselfishness and generosity.

Wherever we are, there is always a solution.

The solution takes place as we stretch out for it.

Right now, we have all agreed on one currency, and one currency only, the currency of money.

But as the greed has nothing more to consume, and no one will pass any more laws to allow it to consume any more, because nothing is left, a new currency will be found.

People with skills will be valued.

People’s shared labor will be valued.

Being in the calm presence of wisdom will be valued.

People will find that they care take care of each other’s children, that they can cultivate community gardens, that they can care for elders, that they can share the transportation that is available, that they can help repair houses and simple machines, that they can have swaps, that they can once again relate to each other.

Greed is at first, a very exciting phase, until it becomes destructive and then it destroys itself.

Start building up your skills so you can share your wisdom.

The time is coming sooner and sooner.
