Hank, so glad to read this. "The rich beg for same..." Man, does that speak volumes. That little bird is in good company. Your perception of zen culture is what I think quite illuminating, reminds me of the REAL "gospel of abundance," which is not about money, but about giving what you have to others and trusting that the rest will come, even in a beggar's bowl. Thanks so much. Love, Ameleh
Good health is a great equalizer - money does not always buy it and often it is more easily achieved with less. Lots of layers to this piece, Hank. Very thoughtful.
Resting through meditation must be the only path to true refreshment!
