RE: Is It Worth Spending Money on Travel?

in #triptolemus6 years ago

Wow thank you so much @surfermarly!!! I got a notification of your comment and I couldn't believe that a superstar like yourself actually read my post ;)

I've seen you around Steem before and I know that you're a veteran of the platform. First of all, thanks for all you do in this community and thanks for spreading a positive vibe and being an inspiration!

Exactly. I totally agree with you on human beings being goal oriented. I think that's what causes a large amount of grief in western culture - humans used to have the ultimate and immediately important goal of survival as hunters and gatherers but we've moved away from that in western culture. Now many of us have no idea what our goals should be. We've turned away from the goal of survival to the goals of materialism and that's a dangerous path.

I've recently begun to look beyond those materialistic desires and now I'm trying to spend my time and money on experiences rather than possessions.

Thank you again for reading it, supporting me and leaving your kind words here, you're too kind!

Hehe, sweet! I'm glad you enjoyed the comment in such way, and also sorry for replying that late. You just caught me traveling (without no keys available) and then I didn't manage to catch up immedeitaly.

But hey, what's written on the blockchain, stays on the blockchain - so we have plenty of time to fill in the gaps actually...:-)

Thanks for calling me a superstar which is much better than veteran, since the latter makes me feel terribly old - lol. Jokes aside, I don't feel special at all but am happy that I was able to put a smile on your face :-)

Have a wonderful weekend of yours!!
