Abundance

When you learn that wheat can be milled into flour, we all have flour.

Then I figure that flour can be turned into bread, and we all have bread.

A third of us has the epiphany to slice the bread, and we all have sliced bread.

A fourth of us figures toast bread would be an excellent idea, and suddenly, we all have toasters.

This is abundance. We lift each other up. No one person has contributed more then another. No one person deserves more monetary gain then the other. We are collective. We are one. A toaster would not have been invented if it were not for the one who started milling flour. And there’s no point competing in the milling and selling of flour. Support the miller, use his flour and invent something that lifts society up another level. Or assist the miller to improve on what he already knows. Share knowledge to improve the community as a whole.

Just as you feed your mouth with one hand and the whole body receives nourishment, or how your feet runs and takes your whole body up hills and over mountains - a community of people, when working as one, can lift the whole community body up. It doesn’t matter if it’s your right or left hand doing the feeding, or that your right leg is stronger and more effective then your left. There’s no you or I. Only us. The best we can do for us.

“As we appreciate the ever-increasing value of each person who makes up the Wholeness, we realize that each of us is far more valuable than any amount of money. As we become a society led by our open hearts, we will naturally create a system of mutual support and equality in which money flows freely, generously and in continuously expanding abundance.” – Arnold M. Patent, Money & Beyond

Eventually, as we realize the value of collective individuals and the essential roles they play as a whole, we won’t even need the monetary system. Valuing and paying someone more then another is like saying your brain is more important then your heart.
