It is so easy to fall into this trap. When we look at the state of affairs today it easy to see why. We are sold a false sense of "you need this in order to be like that" through advertising. The saying "keeping up with the Jones' " is a classic example of this. We strive to be like everyone else. Instead of finding ourselves. Ive been there, but as I've grown I have learnt to be happy for everyone and thankful for what I have.
Beautiful post, thank you for sharing.
I believe this is part of the awakening for humanity... we will all soon see the "Programming" we were exposed to.
Agree. As we evolve we are certainly becoming more aware of it.
