Very true. There are many God-less people running around aimlessly searching for some sort of meaning.. desperately trying to create meaning in their lives, not knowing how to do it. Possessions often take the place of God in their lives. These things do not make us happier. Slowly but surely these possessions end up weighing us down more and more, restricting us. We have to house, move, store, take care of, heat or cool, and power these things. The things end up owning us instead of us owning the things. It’s an insidious racket that we’ve been taught to embrace even if indirectly.
