Concerning Economy

As it was mentioned the underlying ethic, idea and motivation behind this Site is not rooted in commercial ambitions or interests but in the primary wish for free sharing based on the belief of the intrinsic value of what is offered. In some way it cannot be bought or sold, there is no analogy of worth. There are creative little attempts out there to breach the common market-place and private-property work-wise. In the writings of Robin Wall Kimmerer though I find wonderful explanations of indigenous approaches to Gift Economy in all its wise and sustainable depth. The approach to the gift is quite different to the one we know in the Western World. Here a gift is a gift and for free. Gratefully honored but not bound to anything in return. In fact it would be judged greedy, no? But in old native cultures the gift was a form of sharing and distributing evenly what was given by nature. Just as land could not be owned, bought or sold but asked for responsibility and care-taking. Gifted people took with it the responsibility to care as well and return the gift in any given way at any given time: Reciprocity!

 

In this Spirit the content here shall be freely offererd and shared without expectation of payment of some sorts. If there is the urge or possibility to donate and support the further work in any kind of way as a mature and serene act to show reciprocity and responsibility it would be warmly welcome and accepted. This especially if any of the material is or shall be used for specific matters. In that case it would be kindly ecpected to get informed, by pure interest or for collaboration potential.
