A strange thing is happening, something I had hoped for but never really expected. I am finding the further I push myself away from material possessions, and the longer I do it for, the less I want them.
I just spent $250 close to a week ago on a video game accessory. Now that it's arrived, and I have it, I wonder why I bothered to purchase it in the first place, and have opted to sell it just as fast as I have received it, along with the game it was intended for.
It's amazing how fast this change is happening, and it's a very welcome experience. I feel like I'm the narrator of Fight Club, experiencing what it's like to remove distractions from your life, then finally stepping outside the box and abandoning it all for something you believe to be better, and more worthwhile.
I am Jack's enlightened mind.
Is what I'm doing the way to find peace of mind, and peace of inner self? I'm not sure, but I've gone beyond the point of no return. I no longer desire the life I am breaking free from. I've seen great things beyond the confines of this consumerist Americana, and it is no longer enslaving me. Where I go from here is territory where the maps of old have been destroyed and the footsteps in the sand erased by the waves of change. I will decide my own ideals and start anew. This is my contribution to the world, this is the legacy I will leave behind.
