Our family will not partake in Black Friday. The weather here is cool, so we will find something to do indoors for the morning, and then head out to a trail in the afternoon. What a great gift that will be!

The end of capitalism?
The Occupy movement has caused fear amongst many in society. They fear that capitalism will come to an end. It reminds me of the concept of impermanence. Nothings lasts forever, everything changes constantly. During the last few decades, capitalism has changed to mostly benefit an elite few. It appears it now will be transformed into a system that will benefit the majority.
Will it be the same as it was before? Probably not.
Will the change be pain-free? Probably not.
Will the change require sacrifice? Probably so.
Will this generation see the benefits of this shift? Probably not completely. Our children and grandchildren will be the greatest benefactors.
Call me a Twitter
I am more involved in Twitter thanks to the Occupy movement. I am still learning. The 140 characters forces clarity and brevity. Love it!
