Reality?

What if the flik "The Matrix" is truth & all of us only think that what we're living is reality?

What if the citizens of the USA knew the truth of what really goes on in the military, law enforcement, business, government. There would be widespread chaos, citizen revolt.
It would be a mess.
That is, until everyone gets heavily dosed with Prozac & Prozacesque psychtropic pharma.

Sometimes, I see the rat race that people are in, in pursuit of lucre, I question it. 
What's it all for? Materialistic gain? Status? Sexual conquest? Self gratification?
We are born naked, with nothing, when our souls pass from our bodies, all that is gained in this world is left behind.
All that we take with us is the memories made, the love in our hearts...............................or, the other.

Living each day, gathering happy memories, educating our minds, doing good in the world.
Living this way gathers goodness like a beautiful bouquet.
Gathering godness.  :)

When I began to live more simply, the inner peace which ensued is such a deep comfort.
Of course, money is needed to live, to be comfortable, to travel, live out our dreams, seek an education. 

The extraneous "stuff" which clutters most peoples lives, clutters their homes, to them, seems to make them feel accomplished.
It can be burned up, washed away by a flood or smashed to bits by a tornado with no warning. The fires in Colorado, earthquakes in California, tornado in Moore, OK showed us this.
In 2007, I had a great awakening. It caused me to begin to rid myself of "stuff".
This journey has been very liberating, it continues.

Gathering memories to form a heart more filled with love with time is the best treasure.
