The
world is a lot of things and opportunities that a person is free to use as
pleased. We are, by the very fact of its presence on the ground, destined to
interact with a large number of objects, people and events. And each of us will
try to take advantage, consciously or not. But what gives us the consumption,
except for the pleasure of the order of things, people and emotions?
The
more we use objects, the more we attached to them. Each of them loses its true
meaning, and serves only as an attribute or a status label. On the one hand -
it is useful to progress. Human culture grows, creates the world out of what
she knows. The very important element of creativity, that it indicates that the
man is just a man, not an animal. But creativity is brought to the point of
absurdity - to encourage the demand for demand. New models of equipment,
hardware that does not give new benefits, dozens of costumes, makeup designs
for every taste and request. All this renders a person function, whose mission
- to understand all this, periodically consuming goods. But what is most sad,
this happens not only with goods or services.
The
ideological garbage impregnated world, and we - its active carriers. Those
ideas, concepts and theories that ruled the world thousands of years ago. They
did not survive the competition and were destroyed in the dust, buried history.
But we continue to look for them. We spend huge resources on "tearing the
graves." We strive to assert the beauty of antiquity, the importance of
the ancient myths and seriously consider the role of the remnants of the past,
as part of the present. What for?
Instead
of having to move forward, we look back. Ray Bradbury said that the subjects of
his books would have become a reality. If not stick to self, new models of smart
phones and other attributes that have no value in themselves. All this is the
basis for the sad fact. People now are not much different from the people who
live a hundred, a thousand or more years ago. We barely domesticated, but the
behavior has kept a lot of similar characteristics, with the behavior of our
ancestors. If a man from the 16th century to teach the language to wean afraid
cities, change clothes and give a gadget - it can merge with the crowd. What
makes a successful part of the population.
We
remain starved herd, to undermine the benefits of progress. But from overeating
can also die. In any case - you should start with yourself. Being able to build
right direction, having worked towards the goals and learning to ignore
distractions - we are able to strengthen its status as the highest form of
life. And, who knows, perhaps not far off the day when we will surpass this
status, having ascended to a higher stage of evolution.
