Optimizing Thanksgiving-It-Forward

This is Thanksgiving Day, so I want to continue my interior conversation, made perhaps too exterior, by quoting from Sacred Economics, p. 123, (Charles Eisenstein) about "flow of abundance," my nuance in brackets: "Please understand here that I do not mean to deter you from opening to the flow of abundance. To the contrary-- because when enough people do this, the money [and health] system will change to conform to the new [cooperative] belief [in optimizing health as wealth]. Today's money system rests on a foundation of [both power and flow] Separation. It [Win-Lose gaming strategy] is as much an effect as it is a cause of our perception [and evolutionary enculturation] that we are discrete and separate subjects in a universe that is Other. Opening to abundance can only happen when we let go of this [ego- and anthro-centric] identity and open to the richness of our true, [eco]connected being. This new [co-arising] identity wants no part of usury." [but is drawn intuitively and rationally to (0)-interest co-operative, regenerative, transactional, primal, eco-nutritional consciousness.]
