Starving amid abundance -- we consider feeding our souls

When I dream about sudden, unexpected lucky wealth, I revel in how my life might change. I'd transcend the ever-present gnawing concern that I don't have enough. I'd be transformed to an unfettered state, free of my mortgage and retirement woes. I'd be united with the world of plenty. Sounds attractive! But it's unlikely, and lottery winners are not known for long-term happiness. Yet, I ask myself, aren't transcendence, transformation and unity states of being, and aren't they freely available? Are these connected to gratitude, and removed from poverty? Are they derived from feeding our souls.
Please join us as we consider these questions.
As ever, loving childcare is provided.
