the Meaning of Possession Dante ever said that: "Possession is one with loss." Enjoyment is very good, yet it is often unattainable without a material basis. But it does not mean that we should persue fortune with the cost of our health, true happiness and family. We should pause and reflect, asking ourselves what is the purpose of our life. I would like to talk about a story in Blueprint for Success by Donald Dale Jackson. Millard Fuller is a whiz with money. In order to make a fortune, he always works. And at the age of 29, he is almost a millionaire, with a luxurious home, a vocation retreat, two speedboats, a Lincoln Continental and shares in three cattle ranches. Unfortunately, his neck bothers him and his wife goes away from him, complaining that he is always working! Understanding that he has miscalculated so badly, he gives away his money, stays with his families and sets out to help needy people. Finally, he finds a true happiness through his changed life. It is time for us to think seriously about the meaning of possession.
