Prosperity: Treasure Growth By Ed Aurelio C. Reyes Lead Founder and President, SanibLakas Foundation [This was prepared by Ding Reyes as part of the SanibLakas Foundation's greeting to the Asian Social Institute on the occasion of the latter's holding of the Fr. Senden Memorial Lectures on "Celebrative Culture of Solidarity through Social Enterprise Building." It was developed from discussions with Surf Reyes and Cesar Liporada during the inaugural "Sanib-Sinag" session in May 1999, with ASI President Dr. Mina M. Ramirez, with Joydee C. Robledo of the SanibLakas Program Committee for Cooperative Education on Synergism (C.E.S.) and Nicky Perlas, president of the Center for Alternative Development Initiatives (CADI), who authored an essay on "associative economics." It has been included as the last item in the SanibLakas-authored "Seven Flames of Synergy."] PROSPERITY is the enjoyment of abundance, of treasures being used and being shared, resources being put together for growth, to be shared all the more. Economies inextricably link up our separate pockets, as well as our separate stomachs, and so can the pervasive spirit of goodwill in fairness and generosity, which would make people more eager, more efficient, more productive, and altogether more prosperous. Prosperity is the enjoyment not of the prerogative to amass and hoard much wealth, as if it could be brought along on our journey past the grave, but rather the enjoyment of the ability to share more gifts all around, especially with those who deserve or need most to receive. Prosperity results from synergies bonded by love and it is inextricably linked with the ideals of total human development for all concerned, both in the processes and in the enjoyment of the results. Prosperity and its profound enjoyment come from the spirit and act of sharing. |
