RE: THE ILLUSION OF LASTING SATISFACTION
Nice post.
The sad part is that they never realize their enslavement to this vicious cycle.
The disease of insatiability; ironically, it seems like it's at the root of not thinking seriously about what brings you enjoyment.
I like to call this disease “westernism.” A cult-like culture that revolves around feeding an insatiable ego & material obsession.
Yes, although there have been some currents of thought in Western culture that recognized the inherent futility of this type of materialism like epicureanism and it's later manifestations, overall the west has certainly took it to a new level. This type of thinking is now rampant throughout the world even in some traditional societies being affected.
The disease has spread. 😷
