I am rich. I live in a community where people talk to each other. I learn from them. I have:
- access to opportunity to learn from all the arts groups.
- choirs to sing with and be sung to.
- a roof over my head, rooms for sleeping, eating and bathing.
- cupboards to put away clutter.
- a partner who cares for me and protects me from injury.
- grown children who teach me with their wisdom and insight.
- grandchildren who bring joy with their enthusiasm.
- connection to the web, far away and local news and ideas.
- enough food to eat and water to drink.
- clean air and rain.
- first responders trained to protect under dangerous conditions.
- nurses, doctors, health care.
- trees to protect the earth.
- weeds and the bees for germination.
- friends who care, entertain and educate me.
- language to encourage me to read and write.
- music for vibrational belonging.
- books to open other worlds to me.
- politicians willing to do the constant battle for greater good.
- media that publishes the complete story.
- neighbours who hold on to integrity and social responsibility.
- birds who keep the planet alive by feeding on the fruit and flowers.
- farmers who keep their farms healthy to grow nutritious food.
- others who correct my hasty judgements.
- scientists who delve into the cellular levels of life.
- animals who balance this earth with their disinterest in me.
- ministers, rabbi's, priests and prophets, who share the history of religions without claiming supremacy over others.
- all tireless souls engaged in the maintenance of livable community for all.
All these things make my life easier and are worth investing in.
