“Harvest” Plants give up their fruits for us to consume (among other animals) So, we give up our fruits for others (the rich?) to consume. Is this exploitation; oppression? Our labour, our products – what we produce in value used indiscriminately ( a rare pleasure to choose to whom we give, and even then, is it a choice?) Or: is it humility and service? Always seemingly, replenished by that life-giving stream a life-giving stream of many waters replenishing, replenishing Spirit of God bestowing gifts of understanding. How I want To understand.

Ah yes, the longing to understand. I wonder, perhaps, if it is not consuming which is the problem. Instead the problem could be described as consuming beyond any ability to adapt and recuperate ?
yes, and the longing to understand where that point of ability/ inability to adapt/ recuperate is. Made more enigmatic by faith!
