Materialism is what gives us sentience

Very nice read RT. If more people thought as the OP and the other respondents in this thread, that would be such a big step in the right direction. Unfortunately, there is a large part of society looking to the skies or to 'God' waiting for an intervention. But it truly does start with you and with me. With 'us'. Living life eeking out a living to have the most stuff... can't be what it's all about.

Now how do we resolve our issues of living the way we do?

This one can not think of a better decision than to be in a radiant state of Love, omni-directionally.

Out of curiosity, what does the term "[WRAP]" mean?

When I quit worrying about money and bills, really truly stopped dwelling on it, my life became better and less stressful. Oddly enough, my money problems stopped as well. It's like a sickness; never feeling like you measure up to those that hold material success so high in value, especially when it's family members and loved ones that judge you on that.
Ben E. King: Stand By Me Lyrics
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Darlin', darlin', stand by me-e, stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
