Press Release: EMPTY ABUNDANCE; Finding Meaning Through Mindful Giving by Tim McCarthy
Empty Abundance: Finding Meaning Through Mindful Giving
Billboards, TV commercials, radio jingles—they all sell us the same story. “You can buy happiness! The more money you make, the fuller your life will be.” So we buy the shiny new sports car, the sleek designer wardrobe, the gorgeous two-story house. We work hard and make a handsome profit from our labors…and yet we can still feel empty inside.
We’ve all been sold a bill of goods by the dominant consumer culture: that we can spend our way t...
