You can have or be anything you want, but . . .

There are two reasons for this. First, our resources are limited. After all, we have

only so much time, life, money, and energy to work with. Second, our appetite is insatiable. That is, no matter what we become, gain, or achieve, we want more. Our appetite is like seawater; the more we

drink, the thirstier we become. Since we cannot have everything we want, frustration and unhappiness are unavoidable, unless we learn how to curb our greed.

Why are we so greedy?

Possessions can bring us pleasure. And pleasure

can become addictive. If we mistakenly associate pleasure with happiness, it's not surprising that we

pursue it without end. Another reason for greed

is fear.

What is the difference between the hunger of a greedy man who has much and the hunger

of one who has little?

A greedy person cannot be rich.

The poor are not those who don't have much, but are those who crave much.

Greed is GOOD • Because we cannot have

EVERYTHING we want, we need to focus on what's important in our lives and we can put out the flames of greed by concentrating on BEING more instead of HAVING more. We can be more compassionate, helpful, nurturing, responsible, self-disciplined, and courageous. Instead of pampering ourselves with pleasure, we can make ourselves stronger, better, and happier prioritize.
