These times seem to be filled will so much to do, and many people are experiencing exhaustion, overwhelm, and fatigue. The machine of capitalism relentlessly bombards us with work. Whether we are trying to make ends meet, leave enough for our children to struggle less than we did, secure our daily meal, or some other goal that requires some portion of the wealth of the world, for many this is a challenge. Still others have achieved a comfortable level with means, and perhaps still can’t get no satisfaction. Drawing from the ancient Parable of the Sower, we can find some wisdom that may encourage us to find a place in community that could aid us in building a Good Earth.
