We live in a world where I feel we have developed a divide; either you have to be a person that loves material things or a person who lives a life of simplicity. This divide makes me unsure of where I stand, I feel like I have such a wonderful life that wanting things make me feel like a bad person. I feel like I shouldn't want anything because there are so many people in this world who have less. I only have first world problems, why should I even want anything?
I even feel bad writing this but the amount of things I want is to big to even fathom, I want everything and I kind of hate it. I hate the amount I want because I feel like I don't deserve them. Why should I get so much when I have so much already? Will I always have this ridiculous need for things? Will my want never subside?
And then the second question is, if I want all of these things, why am I so lazy? Why do I not get off my butt and work, why do I not go for the things I want? What is holding me back?
Does anyone know?
