Bare necessities

Our basic needs come down to food, clothing, and shelter. There is incredible diversity in how these three basic needs manifest themselves. Think of the variety of food products and the ways that different cultures prepare them. Look at how people have developed clothing to meet the needs and tastes of its users. Shelters are designed to protect us from the elements. For many individuals living across the planet these necessities exist at the minimal level. In some cases it is not enough to sustain life. Since the resources for providing the bare necessities exist, what prevents us from sharing with our fellow man? Perhaps it is the fear that, if we share, there will be less remaining for us. The Universe operates on abundance, not on scarcity. What are you doing to reflect this principle in the world today?
