Gleaning in Today’s Business World
Gleaning is a practice to get what you need, and leave the rest for the less fortunate. Farmers make one pass through the field, gathering the harvest and are commended not to go back, so that the poor can pick up what’s left on the field, and the edges. This is part of the joy of work, and also distribution of wealth.
What’s gleaning like for today’s world? Few of my thoughts:
- Don’t try to do everything and be everything in the market. Focus on what you do best, and leave work for other players, and contract out work.
- Create systems and create jobs in various levels, so that you are creating productive work, giving people the dignity to work, and stimulate economy at all levels of expertise.
- Intern programs, volunteering and donation to help the local communities.
What do you do?

Fat Tuesday
Tomorrow is beginning of Lent. No wonder my nose are stuffed up and runny these days. My seasonal allergy kicks in around the Easter time. It all began 4 years ago when I gave up red/white meats for Lent. I thought maybe without meats, my body can’t find the pollens. That was the only explanation I could give myself, since I’ve never had seasonal allergies before. Though it seems that now, it’s not the meat, but just because I’ve been on the west coast for too long.
Besides that point, what’s everyone giving up this next 40 days?
Top 10 ideas taken from the first result in Google:
10. Junk Food. Just hold out until Easter for your next sugar fix.
9. Alcohol. If nothing else, your liver will thank you for this much needed detox.
8. Sex. Yeah, that’s right, we said it.
7. Late Night. There has to be a more memorable way of spending your Saturday night.
6. Homework. You’ve earned a break after midterms.
5. Facebook. Stop stalking your fellow students and talk to them in person.
4. Online Shopping. Your credit rating is still recovering from Christmas.
3. Swearing. You are modeling your life after Christ … Jesus.
2. Tanning. Fake ‘n Baking was so February.
1. Your Sense of Entitlement. Check your egos for the next forty days and forty nights – it’s what Jesus would do.
