Agree. I need none of what they're telling me I need. I use to chalk it up to being artistic or creative in music or style but if it's tied to some sadistic events, turns out I was a fool. I will not participate anymore with it. Food, shelter, satisfying work, love for God, myself, my family and my neighbors are all I want. I boycott all the trinkets now. Like you said, harder when younger. I hope I'm wiser now and follow through to the end of my days.
