To say that you are born depressed...is just repeating what TV has TOLD you to believe, heaven forbid people have to think for themselves anymore...If you had to grow your own food, hand wash your own cloths and interact with other people to trade goods to survive...you wouldn't have time to be depressed, you would only have enough time to make a living...
Now I will probably get jumped on for this post, but by all means this is fact..when you base your life around material things, and lose the path of living the right way..I think I would set around with nothing to do, but think about what else I don't have...and I would get depressed as well...
Completely agree - I'm am a strict adherent to the simplicity movement. Too many people get sucked into the more is better game that's drummed into our heads from birth and reinforced by big biz and gov in the name of "growth and prosperity". Dropped out of the corporate game at 42 and dedicating my years to pursuing health and happiness for myself and others. Best.
