I'm wondering...about what (we think) we own.
This one was sparked by one of Saturday's observations.
Our sense of being is tied to ownership more than we realize. We often value something about ourselves based on what we own (or don't).
But, whatever we own, isn’t there a significant omission — for how long? Nobody really owns anything for more than a brief period of time (especially, against the spanse of time involved in human existence). So, how does acknowledging that change something...in us?
For one thing, what if our identities weren't tied to who owns what (or, how much)? What would (could) our identities then be tied to? How different would the shapes be of so many things involved in who (we think) we are?
