Sure cultures around the world are different, but even once exotic places are coming under the ever expanding rule of 'american attitude lifestyle', that idea that we have to have everything, nothing is greater than material and social success. Our lives revolve around a repetition of events that supposedly lead us to an unforeseeable goal. The false religious belief that our reward comes after death has left its mark in that rewards come later, productivity comes now. We are supposed to numbly work our way through life and then receive our grand reward, which is nothing but death. In this case it is a reward, the only true escape from a live full of trivial and meaningless interactions that will always leave us feeling unfulfilled. Thus, individually we can run away to different hiding places, doing our best to survive and keep our spirits above becoming an hero. But the real discontent in our lives lies much deeper, ingrained in the very mindset of everyone since they were born, a subconscious passing down of the lives of our forefathers. We live with ghosts regrets. So friends, brothers on this earth, I congratulate you on every step that you take to forge your own path, make your life truly yours, but remember to look deeper, for a real solution.
