HI!!! Every man for himself. This time I’m going to write crooked lines about gravel, bufunfa, money, dindin and their relationship to everyone’s happiness.
Greed is when you want more than you need. Not content with having enough, he wants more without needing it. Most often this occurs when you look to the side and see the neighbor’s green grass.
The mind almost always compares. And it’s stupid since everyone has their own dreams, goals, desires, origins and goals in life.
Living without looking around, shitting and walking for others, should be the mantra for all of us. Easy said, hard done.
The definition of Greed or Avarice is:
Greed is excessive and exalted ambition for money, possessions or other wealth. It is an addiction that leads someone to want to accumulate more than necessary. This desire to accumulate wealth results in various actions that go against the precepts of morality and ethical behavior, as they can have negative consequences for other people or even for society in general.
You live comfortably in a 100 m2 apartment with your wife and two children and each of them has their own room. The living room is spacious, the kitchen is connected and functional. Every morning your coffee machine grinds different beans, transforming them into the precious black liquid at the light touch of a button. The refrigerator and pantry are stocked.
On the porch, your small, compact and efficient gas barbecue is the envy of the neighborhood. The bathrooms are great and well lit. The showers pour powerful hot and cold water over your back at the slight turn of the silver faucet. Clean mirrors reflect his face as a happy and accomplished man. In the wardrobes, everything fits together and a little more.
By gently pressing the button, the elevator arrives. In it you enter and go down to the garage. Having opened three solid doors, you get to the car. On leaving, just wait for the vehicle’s license plate camera to quickly recognize it so that the gate opens automatically and another day begins.
You take to the streets and the world without realizing that you are privileged and that you already have more than enough. Much more than the vast majority of the inhabitants of the planet.
Need to have more? Of course not, I actually need to have less. It should discard everything that isn’t used and keep only what is useful.
Minimalism. Live lightly to move quickly, adapting to circumstances, goals and especially the phases of life.
the mind that compares
Here comes that infamous “friend” who tells you about his new barbecue, powered by gas and charcoal. He probably won’t know how to use it and has no idea how to grill, but the important thing is to HAVE the thing and burp to God and the world about it.
With cars, history repeats itself. The bigger, more expensive and flashier, the better. It is like this in the minds of people with small souls and tiny spirits, not to mention other parts of the body. Symbols of status and power only serve to cover up insecurities, childhood traumas, and a vital need to be accepted, respected, and belonged.
It is the eye bigger than the belly. If you binge on food and then regret it and already think about the race or the gym the next day. This is still a form of greed. Of wanting to devour everything as if the world was about to end at that moment. Not to let go of anything.
In exchange for what? Of your health and your inner peace. Of your time and especially of financial resources. How many people live on appearance to show others that they are successful and rich? You spend way more than you earn just to maintain that image. They live for others and not for themselves. He has no goals, no dreams and no north in life. They want to look like they are not. And they never will!
Lately I try to cut down on the amount of stuff and use whatever I have. Without use there is no use and it must be eliminated. Making room for new things is essential and it’s good for the planet.
It also applies to jobs, relationships, friendships, etc.
Happiness cannot be bought. At most you can rent, but the monthly installments are quite expensive.
