Most of us have more than we need– that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 8 : 23 PM on day 509 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, work, prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature, work some more, feed myself rice and curry for lunch, drink tea by myself, continue working, feed myself nectarines for dinner – our neighbour came to visit and brought fruits she’s the most talkative person I’ve ever met but that’s okay I found it quite endearing 🙂 –  brush my teeth once more and  pray and read Genesis 20 as part of my ongoing quest to learn more about the Bible.

Today I was helping my brother with his EMS – Economic Management Science – project – he had to create a collage separating needs from wants – and for the life of me I could only thing of seven things that we actually needed to survive oxygen, food, water, shelter, clothing, healthcare and education which leads me to the conclusion that most of us are living a life of excess I mean really who needs two of everything why can’t we give whatever we have leftover or don’t use to people who need it more than we do. Do you take what you need and give the rest away or hoard all your resources?
