[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Happiness does not come from material things. It is an emotional state and we as humans get emotional satisfaction from relationships and feeling of self-worth. This culture does not lend to deep emotional relationships. When we cannot love or care enough to put someone else above us, then we cannot help but be self-centered. All negative feelings comes from being self-centered because there will be always someone who is better off than us in something. Its like measuring how fulfilling your life is by seeing the FB posts of others.[/quote] Ok but let's be real. Money and material things don't bring you happiness in themselves but they do give you pretty close approximations: comfort (this is big), security (also big), time savings, leisure, travel, entertainment, excitement, better education and enrichment for your kids. It's not bad to want these things. Just try not to be tacky when focusing on what you don't have.[/quote]
