#material things

The accumulation of beautiful objects is a life goal. Whoever dies with the most stuff wins.

I don't understand why I'm seeing so many Christmas commercials 2 days before Thanksgiving. They could still be pushing people to buy, buy, buy, but why aren't they telling people that they are offering items for people to buy for others to say thank you instead of Christmas gifts? The way these commercials are presented seems to just focus on greed and materialistic ideas. Why not focus on being thankful and buying something for someone to help them or to say thank you to them. Priorities are very askew these days. If they were smart, they would do what I'm suggesting, and they could market things for Christmas and Thanksgiving. Imagine a whole line of cards and gifts and decor focused on saying thank you. It would create a new and bigger market for these companies because people are just gonna buy a certain amount of things related to Christmas, but introducing things to buy for Thanksgiving would open up a whole new world of products, which would increase purchases with these many different items. I bet that they'd make more money that way. Ironic, isn't it? That being said.... thank you so much to all of you who I've met on Tumblr. You guys are great people, and you've made me very happy this year. Thank you.

Don’t let this silly world trick you into starving your soul for material things. Cause someday you’re gonna be sitting out under the sun and realize how little you actually need to be truly happy.
