It shouldn’t be hard to appreciate what we already have, but it seems like it is. Why is that so? Are we afraid of losing or it is just pure satisfaction and showing off?
Let’s say that you are fearful of losing, so you want to have more and more and more. Let’s say that it is just pure satisfaction, so when you’re under stress, you go shopping, and after it, you can sense calmness and happiness. Alternatively, let’s say that you just like showing off. At the end, who cares except your brain, except your soul?
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
Buddha
Don’t put such a burden on yourself, instead take a walk in the woods, connect with nature, breath! That is pure satisfaction. Our brains are massive; our souls exhausted because we became an alienated society.
We alienated ourselves from our roots. We picked the wrong path. Luckily, we still have some time to make it right. As Seneca would say: As long as you live, keep learning how to live.
