Affluence is what everyone strives for- even though the means may be different and limited. When we are in the process of preparing ourselves for life- going to malls and other places of grandeur, feels good- because our eyes twinkle with the thoughts of future filled with money and capability to purchase whatever desired. But reality strikes in when you start earning. It’s another vicious circle- desires never end. Wants convert into needs. Luxury becomes a habit. What else is intriguing is malls then don’t give you the same pleasure- it is not just the law of marginal utility but not being able to purchase the high end extravagances. Visit to such places make you more cognizant of the fact that current earnings can’t meet your requirements. Even though you may be giving the best input in all your endeavours, best of things still are out of reach. It fills you with gloom. It is then when you realise simplicity and contentment should be the virtue of life- But can we achieve this- Not sure again???
