RE: Does Materialism Hold Us Back from True Contentment?

in #story7 years ago

Reminds me of the time I visited my ex-girlfriend's family in the countryside of Thailand.

House has no WIFI, no auto-flush and mosquitos were everywhere.

The parents worked simple lives and they will never make as much money as we all do in modern society.

But... they're so happy. Truly, the day you see someone who's poorer than you, but they're smiling and you're not, it will open your eyes.

I wrote all about it here bro. I think you'll like it!
