There is a trap in my country. This trap requires all people, willing people, to sink themselves into debt while constantly buying things they do not need. My country and its people, by and large, have become selfish. They have been brainwashed in a mechanical and long-term way. These people believe that he who has the most wins. I have to ask: Wins what? Life is not a game to be won. Life is not about the acquisition of things as things do not make up for what has been lost. Many of these materialistic people buy as if they were on automatic pilot and in many ways they are. They spend unnecessary money on unnecessary things to impress upon people their own success. The thing is, success is poorly measured in a material society that runs on debt. The only way for material people to show how they have achieved in their lives is to show off as much as possible the things they have and the places they have traveled too. I am not a part of this fiction. I never wanted material goods. I only need what I need and that is all. There is such a thing as too much. I wish people here understood how they are doing what they are told to do. But, I'm afraid it is a most difficult thing to shed spells that have been cast upon you by thieves and liars.
