being materialistic

why is it that we despise those who r materialistic, we luk down upon them saying that they dont care abt ppl and blah blah... i think everybody is materialistic nowdays. Don't u like wen ppl give u gifts, don't u want a gud job that pays well, get into a gud b-school, then again luk for a job that pays really well... dont u think this is being materialistic or is it aspiring for more. Our whole life we keep lookin for more, thinking wat next, aspiring that we want to get ahead of the person standing besides you. In this race we loose our real selves. We become somebody we wudnt like to be, Just so that ppl like us. So, that ppl accept us, not for who we r but who we try to be...

  1. dear nebula,the crux of the whole issue is that all of us r wearin a mask n believe me this MASK becumz so tight on uS,,,that V start living the MASKED life,forgetting wat V really are...bt again as i am A LOOKER AT BRIGHTER SIDE OF THINGS...the moment v start questioning,the way u hve done,...V AWAKEN N TRY TO GET RID OF THIS MASK...the moment the mask is gone...v feel light n serene...now its on the individual to choose the TIME SPAN OF EXISTING WTHOUT THE MASK.bt all said n done..its difficult bt certainly nt impossible...THE FEEL OF BEING AS LIGHT AS A FEATHER IS JST TREMENDOUS

  2. well...I would say that no matter how much you try to pretend and masquerade, you can't change your inner self and there is no point in changing yourself to win over other people. You'll only end up sharing great long lasting relationships with ones who accept you the way you are!
