Abundance Mindset

I'm contemplating the scarcity versus abundance mindsets.

If we believe in abundance, we are in concert with nature.
  For, nature is all about abundance!
  In fact, for nature to thrive, there must be abundance.

There must be abundance in diversity, or Requisite Variety.
  Put in human terms, we need people of all colors, races,
  politics, beliefs, experiences...to thrive as a species.

Also, there must be abundance in likeness, or Redundancy.
  Again, in human terms, we need people who have similar
  talents and gifts.  We need to offer them together,
  not in competition, but in co-operation and collaboration.

We become rich in the sharing of these gifts,
  both diverse and similar.  And never, never
  do the gifts of another detract from or devalue
  our own gifts!

Like love that expands exponentially as we love more,
  so too, the gifts we offer back to life multiply the benefits
  recieved by all, including ourselves.

So, look for diversity in the people around you.
  Celebrate, learn from, and support that diversity.
  Look for the similarity in the people around you.
  Celebrate, learn from, and support that similarity.

There is never too little, only more and more
  as we share of ourselves and accept the offering of others.

Namaste
