[QUOTE="Rebekah Scott, post: 164374, member: 271"] Most of us were raised in consumer economies, where money is power and spending is the way to change things for the better, where consuming and spending are the engines of progress and goodness. It is not good or bad, it just is how we live and see the world. I think Alex is touching on something beyond that. He is not looking for a charity to give money to, or a short-term volunteer opportunity. He does not just want to come and be a generous tourist, a consumer. He wants to put in not just his money, but his time and effort, love and will. He does not want to buy a bouquet and support the florist, he wants to[I] invest -- [/I]he wants to plow the ground and plant the seeds and grow the flowers! It´s easy to spend money, the entire world is geared to that. But investing is hard work, and it doesn´t always feel good or get noticed or even succeed so well. It is risky. Other people see it and think it´s crazy. But it is tremendously satisfying. And I think it is where our futures lie. [/QUOTE]
