Tycoon-ism: “Blessed are those that can give without remembering and receive without forgetting.” – Anonymous
It is the concept of ownership that makes our world the way it is. It is this that has spawned boundaries between nations. And fences between neighbors. Not that it is a bad thing. Ownership has also spawned great artists and heroes. What makes it asinine is when we consider our small spot on earth such as our backyard as “ours” and the rest is “theirs”. It is this division that we have in our minds that makes us not care about what is going on around us. But who are we kidding? We all live on the same planet. What happens in countries as far away as China affects us ecologically, politically, morally. Why then should we not look at everything as belonging to us hence we must endeavor to protect it? When we start thinking at a global perspective we will realize that we can do so much to care for people and our planet. If only we could stop thinking like little children fighting for their toys, that is.
