Christmas fever (Photo credit: Alan Carter)OK, I have been super busy with everything else I have been doing so The Gift Economy has been a little neglected. I am back now though and will be posting some more regular updates to this blog.A lot of what I wanted to do here was essentially have an online discussion of what gift giving can achieve. We live in an increasingly selfish world with individuals looking out for themselves.
What I see from things like the global financial crisis is that the richer someone in in monetary terms, the poorer they are spiritually, unwilling to give up any of their wealth and only wanting more.
This is why you see many more generous people in the lower and middle classes of society. It is also why I write this blog of giving in the hope that it is a little step towards reducing the greed inherent in our world.
Not to go into a whole rant at the moment, as this is more of a welcome back note, but just to say thanks fro visiting and I hope to add some more fun stuff soon!
