Things have got to change

A few weeks ago, I have started thinking alot, about...things. About myself, mostly- And the way it seems that most people live their lives...

As we all know, we currently live in a time where material posessions and the like are put way too much value on. I, myself, don't fall far from that tree. I realized that I CONSTANTLY seek stimulation...in my case, from food. I don't eat out of need or hunger, I eat because I need to constantly feed my mind pleasure. If I don't, I feel as if life has no meaning...literally. I put way too much weight in material life, and I need a change of view of LIFE.

If you feel that material things are a to big thing, then I would recommend you search info on minimalism or modern minimalism.

The easiest way to make a change may be to find something non-material that you really enjoy, such as gardening, writing, or music. I feel not that we focus too much on material things, just that we focus not enough on the less tangible things we could enjoy in life. If you can, spend time outside. It seems that people start feeling like that after being smashed inside for too long, it's unnatural and numbing.
