the best things in life are free. and they remain to be free. but with the kind of lives we have, with the way we are being conditioned by modern lifestyle and modern thinking, the way modern society is set-up, the kind of norms and values we allow ourselves to conform and get accustomed to, the priorities our leaders have, the best things in life have become hard to find or inconvenient to access. or maybe even difficult to recognize for some of us. we have to go out of our way, or exert some extra effort in order to enjoy the best things in life. so we are somewhat forced to settle for alternatives to the best things in life even if we have to pay for it. or our idea of the best things in life are distorted to further perpetuate the current order of things. happiness now has a price. so does convenience and comfort which can be ridiculously expensive. our idea of having a decent life has become unnecessarily complicated because of the kind of stuff we are conditioned to appreciate in order to enjoy life.
life should be simple and free, not artifical and costly. but in our modern world, its a struggle for most of us to go for these so called best things in life. our needs remain to be biologically basic but our wants have grown to be complicated and sometimes absurdly twisted.
again, im writing about something thats supposed to be obvious.
