SOME PEOPLE SEARCH FOR A FOUNTAIN
that promises forever young;
some people need three dozen roses
AND THAT’S THE ONLY WAY TO PROVE YOU LOVE THEM.
Hand me the world on a silver platter,
and what good would it be
with no one to share, with
NO ONE WHO TRULY CARES FOR ME?

"When enough material assets have been accumulated by all means and nothing much is left to be done, a rich person is most likely to pen down a book only to make more money out of it."

“
The world is increasingly designed to depress us. Happiness isn’t very good for the economy. If we were happy with what we had, why would we need more? How do you sell an anti-aging moisturizer? You make someone worry about aging. How do you get people to vote for a political party? You make them worry about immigration. How do you get them to buy insurance? By making them worry about everything. How do you get them to have plastic surgery? By highlighting their physical flaws. How do you get them to watch a TV show? By making them worry about missing out. How do you get them to buy a new smartphone? By making them feel like they are being left behind. To be calm becomes a kind of revolutionary act. To be happy with your own non-upgraded existence. To be comfortable with our messy, human selves, would not be good for business.

“If it is sensible to believe that a person becomes who s/he dreams to be,
then it is also reasonable to ponder
if the beggars and buggers dreamt to be who they are like in their lives.”
