We set ourselves up for disaster didn't we? Excessive shopping. We fell for the trends. We got the biggest cars. We have the coolest kicks. We ate the finest foods. Daily. We have the emptiest bank accounts.
For some reason we felt like we had to embellish our details more and more in order for us to be a part of a society that was tangible if only we had self control. We spent our money recklessly always hoping that the future held huge sacks of monies waiting for us. To live flashy is to be poor. Too bad we are realizing the big picture a little too late. This almost feels like starving all day and stuffing our faces in a matter of minutes without drinking water in order to eat the most food. Then what happens? We're extremely full and have to eat again in 4 hours. Couldn't we have just eaten half now and the rest for later?
I'm so sad. I was so sure that spending all this money would truly validate my place in this society. I was so wrong.
