Hi Jeanette, Sure, greed destroys peace and happiness: not only of the ones your greed targets, but your own happiness is also destroyed. Greed is what we remember Hitler for. Your own erstwhile president George Bush. A long list of Tsars, Mussolinis.... As an ancient poet in Malayalam (the language spoken by people of Kerala, India- it my mother tongue) has written: Greed for wealth and women has been the cause of all the wars: : Ancient Indian scripts say: : Tyena Tyaktena Bhunjeetha: Consume what is required to keep you alive. Do not indulge in food; applies equally to other desires as well. Very poignant write..A 100++
