A Different Kind of Treasure
Treasures have always fascinated mankind and I never stopped to think why this is so. We all know about Ali Baba and his cave filled with fabulous treasures hidden from the world by a magic spell that responds to the name a tiny seed. Aladdin has a different kind of treasure, one that is capable of creating treasure on demand. We love such nonsense and never tire of them. I suppose that deep inside we just want to get treasures and, a lot of them, without having to work at all. There is a treasure which we can conjure up with our fingers but these treasures are not physical in nature but intellectual. Here are a few of them:
facing, factory, fame, fascism, fashion, festival, fiction, figure-skating, financing, fission, flavor, florence, florida, flowers, fortune, freedom, frustration, fuel-cell, fusion, game, garbage, gas, geek, gem, gemstone, ghost, goal, goat, god, gold, golf, google, gorilla, grand-jury, grand-prix, grandstand, grass, greece, greek, green-tea, guitar, hate, healing, health, heart, heartland, heaven, heavy, hell, hello, herbal, hill, history, holistic, home, horse, html, humanitarian, hurt, huston, hybrid-cars, hype, hypertension
The universe even in its vastness, is limited. This owes to the fact that the universe is material in nature. Hence, the universe is limited. Given man's proclivity for owning things and accumulating those that he cannot even hope to consume in a number of lifetimes, if there was a way of doing it, man would lay claim to the universe and call it his own. He would have a problem administering a quasar or a black hole but he would surely love to show off his title of ownership to these if it could be done.

A different kind of treasure is intellectual treasure. Here, there can be no question of scarcity. One can accumulate intellectual treasures without the danger of depriving others. We can all grab what we desire and there would be more than enough for everyone else.
