Fernando Pessoa said, “The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd – The longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else; dissatisfaction with the world’s existence.

In the physical universe, almost everything can be considered a “resource” whose availability is ultimately limited by either actual rarity, limited access, or compromise.

Many think without money that there will be insufficient “incentive” to be creative and productive. And yet we see countless people “volunteer” to do things without pay all the time. Starving artists create masterpieces while wondering where their next meal will come from. Yet, fully volunteer-based activities seem to flounder and fail more than they succeed. Can a fully volunteer-based society ever truly work outside of the divine realm itself?
