So I've been realizing that, at least in the US, this idea that we all have to guard everything we have; wiether it be food, clothing, cars, lovers, pets, etc, that if we share with others, things will disappear and we'll not have enough, that there isn't enough to go around; basically, this capitalist idea of scarcity isn't as true as we sometimes think.
I've been practicing some pretty intense sharing lately; I mean, moreso then ever before in my life. I've experimented with polyamoury (sharing lovers,) sharing my bed with people I barely know, as well as people I love dearly, sharing food, bathtowels, my van (which is now impounded,) clothes and pretty much every thing else I own, as well as really intimate thoughts and feelings I'd never felt comfortable to share with people before. The results of all of this sharing have been mixed, and I certainly have a lot to learn, especially in the polyamoury department, but one thing I have definately learned is that, we are not lacking in any of these items, if we are just open to meeting our needs in perhaps not the most conventional ways.
Well, I was gonna write more about this right now, but a friend is waiting to walk with me to get coffee, so I'll write later.
Love ya,
Carrot
