Deep-rooted acquisitiveness

Notice how deep-rooted acquisitiveness is in our society.

 

Driven by desires kindled by the ideals of mass consumerisms, people work longer & longer hours to the detriments of their health, spending little time with their chilldren, and oddly; spending little time with their acqusitions.

 

In the case of acquiring a new car, they probably spend too much time in it, getting stuck in traffic day after day because everyone wants a car, and everyone wants to live somewhere nice, far away from where they work...

It was related to me that there were people who slog away, putting in long hours at work so as to earn the bucks to pay off the mortgage on their condo, whereby it was their maid who can 'find the leisure time' to enjoy the condo' facilities.

 

Such irony... after paying for the acquisition, one hardly had time to use it !

Well, it goes to show that there is something wrong with mankind in today's fast moving and ever evolving world. Ever get the feeling that this world is heading south with all the serious global problems that we and our children are facing?
