Do We Ever Have "Enough"?
Be assured that I am not judging here...after all, I recall over and over again the scripture which admonishes us to cast out the log in our own eye before worrying about the speck in another's eye. But even as I am for the most part enjoying and appreciating this holiday season, I have become aware of a modern phenomenon which both puzzles and saddens me, causing me to question many things about our society. In my new neighborhood is being constructed yet another storage facility...a huge one, which will accommodate the "stuff" of many, many people. And this is just one of the considerable number of such facilities which have sprung into being in the last few years. Obviously, there is the "need" for them, else they would not continue to be built...which leads me to wonder "why?" Are we truly a people of so many possessions that we need these places in which to house the countless things which do not fit into the living spaces we occupy? D
