It shows how you can make your people stronger and make the world a better place. If we could live like this, the world would not be as corrupt or damaged as it is.dominic williamsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595859379914711075.post-69622435566339547472009-09-10T11:21:03.428-05:002009-09-10T11:21:03.428-05:00I do agree that if everyone does a little bit them...I do agree that if everyone does a little bit themselves that it will add up in the long run. You don't have to be wealthy or in an upper class to be successfull or make a difference in someones life. Sometimes something as simple as a smile could make another persons day better.<br /><br />-Robert C.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595859379914711075.post-21216462996208017122009-09-10T00:29:48.414-05:002009-09-10T00:29:48.414-05:00What stood out to me the most what the fact that t...What stood out to me the most what the fact that the Rosetans picked up on the egalitarian ethos of the cummunity, which discouraged the wealthy from flaunting their success and helped the unsuccessful obscure their failures. This practice is especially important, because some wealthy individuals look down on the poor. The Egalitarian practice keeps the wealthy humble,and it causes the community to be more unified. Financial problems cause a lot a stress, and stress causes sickness and disease. This explains why they are so healthy. They don't have the cares, and stressors the "Outside World" has, which makes them healthier. <br /><br />If Americans practiced this way of life, we wouldn't have half the stressors we deal with on a daily basis. While this practice is not realistic when it comes to the whole united states, we could incorporate just the practice of being a more unified community just here on the SIUE Caampus. Maybe one small deed at a time, and over time the small deeds will add up and in turn, we would have made much progress. <br /><br />Allen C.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595859379914711075.post-78854109175603034472009-09-02T15:24:43.887-05:002009-09-02T15:24:43.887-05:00looking forward to participating.
