Stopped at the bakery for a cafe con leche and Avena, feeling grateful that I can even do that, the idea that when I'm thirsty or hungry I always have my needs met without fear or worry of where my next meal is coming. There was a woman in front and she asked me if I could get her an empanada, which I gladly did, the point is I never take more than my share, if I have it you have it, when I win we all win, every penny extra I give away to someone who needs it, I may not be left with much, I may not always have everything but honestly I don't need it all. We easily allow our egos to say well I work hard for this or that, it's a slippery slope indeed when we start to think in terms of unequal entitlement, we completely miss the point that all resources for survival are naturally free, the water you drink to the fruit on the trees, even animals, the rivers, the beaches, the mountains, all natural resources that we "pay someone for" - it is us who support the systems that serve only to benefit themselves, we bought into to this illusion and continue to support it through every purchase we make, there is no reason in this world why anyone should be without their basic needs met. If you have extra share it, it's that simple. ~Will "Story" Rivera
