RE: Moving Past Bitterness to Abundance
I appreciate your insight into the true sources of happiness and abundance. Very true too that bitterness, resentment, “relative deprivation” is what is really undermining the abundance of this society. People would rather do without themselves than set things up such that everyone gets what they need regardless. This puritanical idea of “earning one’s keep” has got to go.
We were born deserving, and the sooner we accept that for ourselves and everyone else, the sooner we can get on with living the blessing that was intended for us.
You may be temporarily knocked back, but you’ve got a wisdom that will ensure you bounce back with even more abundance and joy than before.
Yeah, I've had too many conversations with people trying to get to the bottom of their economic views only to find that it is 'relative deprivation' . I just want to know if they are so unhappy why not activate change instead of keeping us all here. The crabs in the bucket metaphor always comes to mind, and I just can't wrestle to the core 'why' of it...
