I have always been troubled by that aspect of mankind.
That seemingly unquenchable desire for a bigger better everything..better house with a better kitchen . Bigger better faster car that is "better' than your friends and neighbours ( it's always important that one's toys are seen to be better ) . Better clothes ( ? ! ) Bigger better 'things' .Go to better places... better restaurants....they are graded for us by people so we know which ones to go to...so we know it is better.
Some of us are ill with it... we can never reach that for which we endlessly strive. Bespoke shoes, bespoke clothes...couture clothes. Exclusive...thats a siren call of a word...limited edition , why do we get suckered in to that nonsense ?
It's as if we all exist in a movie of our own creation going on in our heads in which we are the observers of our own movie.....we 'see' ourselves driving along in our fancier car as we think that others 'must ' see us. Many strike me as never happy with what they see and must strive for a better look. " My friends all drive Porsches I must make amends "
That word "look" , as in 'the way I look ' has always troubled me.
Still....it is probably / possibly what got our ancestors out of the caves and the trees in a lizard brain sort of way.
