Hiding in Unnatural Happiness

We are living in a world where we place unnatural pressures on one another for success. And society teaches us in order to be happy we must have nice cars, be famous, a yacht, a mansion, and lots of money. However, what if that lifestyle only makes you a slave to unnatural happiness. What if trying to achieve these material possessions is the purpose for your anxiety? What if it is the reason you feel lost in the first place? We are massively programmed and are prisoners of a consumer driven society. To become a self realized person takes work and can attain happiness so can a person who has plenty of materials. Everyone else in between these two places experiences anxiety.
