Seems like the word 'Status' is far more important today than ever. Specifically toward social media and what is going on "regularly" in people's lives. Don't you miss the days when everything in your day was so much more basic/simple? No selfies crossed your mind. Updates on 'whoever' and what "so & so" is up to lately? It used to be we would only focus on the family, hobbies and or nearest relatives in our lives. Even then, we didn't want to learn to much(drama).
Here in the united States;
We had a long days work to get through, and when you finally were off; a game show or something routine on television before going to bed and (repeat). Now we are incensed with everyone's drama or latest outing; going to the store, going for a drive, going to Disneyland or vacation elsewhere. Let us not forget all who are obsessed with their body. Going to the gym or following the latest diet trend! (Egoic mindest) All for that perfect public image; It's enough to make you a little less sane at times! Sure, you can try and tune it out or block(un-follow) all that nonsense but it's too late for some; you're hooked!

Addicted!
It really is getting ridiculous as we progress onward into the future(next week) etc. The tech phones too; What's up with that? Why is it necessary to update to another phone(Apple) in about a year? Can't we just be happy where we are with what we have already?

That is part of the insanity of it all; people are barely keeping up with real life, as it is and the struggles that come and go (the wealthy, entitled, silver spoon-fed individuals don't apply) but all those that are just trying to keep up with the fast-changing and fast-paced world we are 'bullet-train riding,' ahead on; is going to put many on a collision course with a reality unknown to them: That is 3rd world living!
You cannot imagine it but it is (a possible outcome) and the government will come along with a solution for it all. (hmmm)
Is it possible that was the plan all along? Sound far-fetched? Maybe, but what if? Imagine being so distracted by things in life, meant to keep you from questioning or getting the bigger picture of what has been going on for so many decades.
Really? No wonder people are doing some pretty crazy things in society with guns, and the bullying or suicidal tendencies becoming more of a problem with our youth today.
No wonder so many more choose to give up, and become homeless.
All those things to acquire are some pretty high expectations, just to fit in with everyone. How can anyone be free of chains(debt);with all those things to acquire? More and more looking for an escape from life and the future that lies head of them. (Drugs, pornography, alcohol)
The youth don't seem the slightest prepared except a certain group; those structured by a good (No Bull***) parent, that is full on telling them what the real world is all about and guiding(structuring) them along the way as they age; til they've had enough and decided, "I'm ready! I've got my helmet and I'm gonna take life head on! No helicopter parenting is going to rescue me from my choices. You own them. (Consequences or reward.) It is all yours.
I think it is okay to just be YOU. No status, no expectations, from anyone but what you want out of life.
LOSE THE EGO, find out who you really are.
Technology? Don't you worry; it's likely to implode and you'll carry on just fine without it.
Think; the early to mid 90's way of life. It was not to heavy on tech and yet life seemed still simple enough to plan ahead. Keep faith in yourself. Your ability to take care of yourself and your responsibilities. Focus on yourself and just live for today with confidence and self control* You'll see a car passing you by one day with a window sticker; palm trees and the phrase "no bad days" and you'll just think (yea, no bad days).
It has to begin somewhere* Lose the ego-mind and see life differently.
Awaken and take control of your life!
