Faux Pas III <fauxpas@havoc.gtf.org> elaborated:
: Money's easier to come by than love or spiritual enlightenment.  Also, until 
: you have at least a reasonable amount of the former, you can't really settle
: down and appreciate the latter.

And it doesn't give you near as much satisfaction either (and I"m quite
materialistic. But I find that all my possessions are a short term source
of happiness btu can't really make me truly happy. They can mask me being
unhappy though).

And I've seen people who didn't have much money and still could appreciate
the latter, it can be quite easily done. It's not having the money that
helps you appreciate the latter, it's a frame of mind (one I wish I could
get myself into).

The root cause of problems is simple overpopulation.  People just aren't
worth very much any more, and they know it.  Makes 'em testy. ...Bev
