Make things better by making better things.
Being incessantly inundated with images and messages over time can change our wants, desires, and dreams. The shift is evident as a millennial. You didn’t grow up wanting to be a sellout. To become a millionaire. And over time, when we glamorize this, it becomes the next generation’s desires. Not everyone, of course. But enough to see the impact of a world of constant marketing. Feeling sad? Here’s a pill and a Louis Vuitton purse to get you through. After all, you deserve it. What I’m trying to point out here is that when we are free from this kind of disruption and distraction, we can actually think freely with our own thoughts and explore who it is we really are. Between smartphones, constant internet access, WiFi, billboards, and advertisements, there is no quiet. And quiet is how we turn down the noise. The culture—collectively—could use some quiet time to figure out who we are and what it is we want to become.
