I have also gotten really rich by buying products from the oil companies. Not rich by modern American standards, but rich according to how most people scratch out a living in this small world. I'm glad my gardening is optional. I do it by choice. Some people don't have a choice. In the midst of complaints, it's good to remember our blessings. We spend most of our money on non-essentials. We could get by with much less rich food, clothes, entertainments, etc. This is the most comfortable time in civilization. I'm thankful for that, but ultimately, my comfort in life is not tied to those things. When things change (and they will), I will still have that treasure that does not fade away. -- JF -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
