Ecc. 1:2, 2:21-23; Col. 3:1-5, 9-11; Lk 12:13-21
Today's Reading from the Gospel of Luke teaches us that life does not consist in the abundance of possessions. A rich and meaningful life cannot be drawn out of it.
At the same time, we cannot deny that possessions, although they are transient, have a strange influence on the human mind.
