there are things in the world that we as a society may care about too much,
from what others think,
to what we wear,
but some things aren't worth caring about.

I got to go pick out a new pair of glasses today before i head into university, and there were so many choices to pick from, thick frames, no frames, rectangular, round, hipster, etc... and as i was going through it, i was content, knowing that i didn't really care about what I had as glasses. I was already blessed enough with a) even having a choice, b) being blessed enough to have glasses, c) have healthcare and the money to purchase this.

Materialism has definitely gotten bigger and bigger in our world today. Society says that to be cool, to be successful, we need to have all the latest gadgets, the branded clothes and the expensive cars, and as great as they are, they mean nothing. At the end of the day, thats isn't what matters. Thats why shopping, picking out new glasses, it isn't hard for me. I don't necessarily need to look good, i just need be comfortable and content.

Im not saying looking good and looking sharp is bad, its important for things like interviews to show that you care, but its when you're flashing your LV wallet, and your ferrari is when its gone too far.

In fact, it feels good to not care about something that isn't worthy of being cared for.

Is there something you're caring about too much? may it be things, a person, a relationship, school?


verse of the day: Matthew 6:33
33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
