“the most important thing in life is not to have the most, but to need the least.”
Imagine 2 farms.
One yields 600 bushels of corn but requires 400 bushels worth of sold corn to produce that.
The other yields 500 bushels of corn and requires 50 bushels worth of sold corn.
Which farm fares better that year?

#Plato was once asked two questions.
The first, “What are the behaviours of people that surprise you the most?”
Plato replied “They get bored in childhood and hurry to grow up but then they miss their childhood. They lose their health to earn money but they pay money to regain their health. Worried about tomorrow, they forget about today.
In the end, they live neither today nor tomorrow. They live as if they will never die, but they die as if they have never lived.”
The second question was, “What do you suggest?”
The sage replied, “Don’t try to get anyone to like you, the only thing to do is to leave yourself to be loved. And the most important thing in life is not to have the most, but to need the least.”
Plato, whose real name was actually Aristocles, was a brilliant philosopher who lived in Greece around 2,400 years ago.
These excerpts from the Dialogues of Plato highlight that the modern lifestyle currently plaguing humanity isn’t actually very modern at all. #Philosophy #Nostr #Bitcoin
