Re: ~~~ Could You Sell EVERY Possession You Own? ~~~
Been on both sides, without and with.
There is no way I will go back to "without", one achieves nothing by having "nothing".
One has to remember not to desire "only" worldly possessions.
All your prophets Ghandi, etc were taken care of in a worldly sense by others.
I know of no "others" who would take care of me or who I would want to be in that position with.
What must I keep? My home, my roof over my head, my sanctuary.
I am as free now as I have never known before in my life.
Everyone's path takes a different direction and meaning.
I will guard it like a tiger in the trees.

Bill,
Perhaps you could sell every possession you own and perhaps that would be without difficulty and with some joy,
but the real giving up would be, could you give up drinking? I believe that would be your greatest sacrifice.
Maybe you have!

Why ask someone to give up something they do not really cherish anyway.
What is the point?
It is no sacrifice.
It is selective.

No I have not given up drinking and, in that respect, I think I may have temporally picked-up one or two more things I am overly attached to.

I think the hard one would be giving up the computer. It would be like giving up your family....at least to me.reasonvemotion wrote:Bill,

I know what you are saying.
For some short periods of time does the computer/internet posses us?

Some possessions are basic.
If I sold my cup and knife and spoon I would have to buy new ones.
Wouldn´t you ?
