If you would be complete take all you have and give it to the poor. Then come follow me

I think of this often even though I am not a Christian. When someone asks me for socks and I also have shoes, I'll give them both.

But obviously it's not sustainable. I need shoes too.

honestly a big part of me does believe it's immoral to own anything above the bare essentials, when there are people going without all over the world. It's a weird part of reality that we've all kind of just come to accept.

@BlueVeins I feel guilty for what I have a lot. It's funny that regular folks feel guilt for our minor excesses while billionaires drive cars to space

Yes, you need shoes, too... but, do you need 50 pairs of shoes??? You only have one pair of feet.

@HootyTheNightOwl truth.
