Dear ecjensen ~ so true, and I'm actually very very happy that there are at least some people who have money who use their wealth resources to contribute to the wellbeing of humanity... Jimmy Carter comes to mind. He built the Carter Center as a forum for ideas and action, and also as a base, a base from which he, and sometimes he and Rosalyn go out from and do amazing things like helping to cure river blindness (I can't remember the country, but the cure was not rocket science; just know how and resources) or being mediators and conflict resolvers in different parts of the world. They do so much more; it would take pages and pages to tell it. And there are others who take their "fame" wealth and use it to do wonderful things like stand up for children with disabilities or work to find a cure to Parkinsons Disease. So much can be done with much. And even much can be done with only a little. That is how groups like the Children's Health Fund and the March of Dimes work. If not for the all the $10 and $15 donations, even with all the grant money they receive, they would not be as effective. As you say, it is all Shakti and the only question is what are we going to do with it? Jai Ma ~ Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
