35. Much wants more

“Much wants more”, is from one of Aesop’s Fables, “The Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs”. This fable is a short story, which can be read in less than a minute. When I tried to find the exact story on the internet, I only found all kinds of different versions.

The story is about a wife and a husband, who had a goose, that laid a golden egg every day. This was of course a great blessing, and they become rich. However, as the time went on, they started to want to have more. So one day, they talked with each other and found out; that if they killed the goose, then they got all the golden eggs inside the goose at once. But when the goose was killed, they didn’t find a single golden egg inside the goose. Inside the death goose, it was exactly the same as in all geese. The married couple had lost their riches.

Moral:

Much wants more, and loses all.

It is no unambiguous account about Aesop on the internet. He lived in Greek approximately 620 ‐ 564 before Christ. It repeats that he at first was a slave, who later became appreciated for his cleverness.

This is a kind of parable, which it is typical to find different of, at different times, at different places, in the history. This saying is thousands of years old. Therefore, these thoughts have been thought, from a long time back before today.

Yesterday I wrote down “much wants more” on a paper, to remember it. It came up in my thoughts as a strong point. After I had written it down, I put it aside, and thought that then I wouldn’t forget it.

Afterwards it was as if this note came in center, of these influences by the criminals, who have influenced me with mind control. After some time, I thought I could write that. It was like this saying “much wants more” was something which should disappear and lose attention. This was so clear, that I thought, that I should write exactly that.
