Feeling Depressed? This May Be the Thing You Need to Feel Happier (Hint: It’s Not Money)

I enjoyed this piece. I feel like the media and society dictate the notion that money is everything. It’s nice to be able to pay bills and not have to worry. Other than that I can get what the wealthy have by thriftiness and finding things at the right prices. It’s more like I want something rather than saying I need it. Of course I want nice things like everyone but I don’t need nice things. If it comes my way at a poor mans price I’ll get it, ha. Everywhere we look the media tells us what is beautiful and popular and it’s merely a man made concept. An advertiser, and I go off of documentaries here, can tell the world that our ear lobes need ointment and all of a sudden a product becomes normal and an issue is created to make money. It’s quite a vicious cycle. I recently opened a small business and on top of my student loans I have an extremely small margin of error. I have been open two months now and absolutely dread the feelings of making money and at the end of the month being zero. One slip can cost me a lot in this situation but I rely on my higher power and e program of A.A. To keep my mind right, ha! But nonetheless I came across this piece after searching some relief of others worrying about money. At one point I was having panic attacks but it slowly has gone away. I guess in a nutshell that through prayer and meditation I can help clear my mind of the sub conscious direction toward what the media tells me I should be looking at!
