We have our own imperfection to wade through in finding balance. And further, the system is designed to make this balance difficult for us.
A money-driven society where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer makes it hard for us to keep up with life. It exhausts us to the point of mental laziness, taking mental-shortcuts, responding to issues with thought-terminating platitudes, restoring to indirect and long-term ineffective coping mechanisms instead of addressing problems.
Being chased by bills for needs, debt for investments, and pressure for social signals under threat of damage to our relationships or our self esteem.
This is fully intentional, to further enslave us to the financial system.
You cannot serve two masters.
Money does not always become one's master because of greed; sometimes it is exhaustion.
The antidote to the impossible? Faith; actively choosing a different master.
