Make a Deal with the Universe

Sunrise TanzaniaQuote for Friday:

“Once you start to see through the myth of status, possessions, and unlimited consumption as a path to happiness, you’ll find that you have all kinds of freedom and time. It’s like a deal you can make with the universe; I’ll give up greed for freedom. Then you can start putting your time to good use.” - David Edwards, “Nothing To Lose But Our Illusions”

After all, just how many houses, cars, phones, iPods, t-shirts do we really need? George Carlin’s classic monologue, “A Place for My Stuff,” sums it up nicely.

Have a great weekend! I’ll be at Globalquerque! looking at - ur - stuff.
