J. John, the famous preacher speaks of how he was once asked at a funeral “Did your uncle leave much?” he replied “O yes - he left everything”.

He also said that the problem of the rat race is, even if you win, you are still a rat.If you can’t take it with you, and you will never have enough - then the rat race itself better be fun - and I wonder if it is and for how many?Sadly, we have bought the great lie. The great deception.Schopenhauer, the 19th century philosopher said that this great lie is like seawater - the more we drink, the thirstier we become. Coveting is based on an illusion - it cannot deliver what it promises. We can of course experience temporary highs from presents, a new car, a pay rise - but how long does the effect last? How long before we are thirsty again?
