Feeling abundant provides us hope…..

Feeling abundant provides us hope for our future along with an extraordinary platform on which to analyze our current global situation.  Now more than ever we need a NEW PERSPECTIVE.  If we make an honest assessment, we will see that our current situation is not as bad as we think.  In fact, changing the prevelant belief that things are falling apart is possibly our most important task.

I believe that in order to change the situation we are currently in, we must first comprehend the situation itself.  Dr. Diamandis does a tremendous job of outlining the challenges which lie ahead.  He also demonstrates how to use the resources we have to overcome those obstacles.   Perhaps even more exciting than our future is our present.  By all measures, our collective quality of life has risen exponentially and poverty has been reduced more in the past 5 decades than in the previous 500 years.  Slavery is outlawed everywhere, we are living longer, healthier, wealthier and safer lives.  Most importantly, we are all connected to one another – which is exactly what the saints and sages have been telling us for thousands of years.

The one area in which Peter misses the Abundance Boat is when it comes to food.  First of all true abundance is contingent upon being HEALTHY!!  Scientifically we’ve proven that you do become what you eat.  Thus if you can eat genetically modified food your cellular make up is genetically modified.  Now Peter is confident that technology will resolve this little issue, I’m not so confident that it will.   In fact, there is no reason to even argue this point.!!  The only thing we need to do to feed our ever growing population is to make it profitable to grow organic food.

Incentivize entrepreneurs:  redirect corporate subsidies, remove local barriers, make our abundant land and water resources accessible to small farmers and tell the truth about what REAL FOOD is, and how it heals the body.  This will shift a majority of the $2.6 trillion currently being spent on health care to prevention and wellness. This shift creates a world of abundance and real food to feed our abundant future.
