Interesting post, keeping up with the Joneses or trying to be on the same level as your rich neighbour can be quite draining and has destroyed most people. Everyone will never be at the same level, that's why faking it till you make it never works out for most people. Finding satisfaction in what you already have and working hard for more is the way to go. Human nature is that no amount resource is ever enough, no matter how much it is.
Thank you for sharing these two wonderful thought provoking posts on minimalism. When it comes to human needs, satisfaction is a bottomless pit that can never be reached. Do enjoy the upcoming weekend :}
