I have often come to realize that the following idea and practice constitute a very simple and effective form of therapy, and thought it might be a good idea to share it here. You might want to give it a try some time. Feel free to share your observations, if you happen to try this, and feel like telling others what you've learned. So, here is the idea:
Rather then spending much of your time:
- dreaming about the mansions and palaces of various celebrities,
- wondering when the time will come for you to own one of those,
- forwarding the pictures of those mansions to all your friends
take some time to visit those much less fortunate than you to get some perspective on some of the things you take for granted. And whatever you do, make sure you are not fixated on the advertisements. To see why, check out the very illuminating documentary entitled Psywar (see here also) from Metanoia Films and in particular the 10 minute segment (segment IV) starting at this point, entitled "Consumers".
