On Getting Older

Now that I'm in my 40's there is so much less that I care about.  That's a good thing.  We are brainwashed from birth to believe that the only things that make us successful are good looks, money, and material things. 

I watch in quasi-amusement now at those striving for material riches and climbing the corporate ladder.  They trip all over themselves to make the right "connections" at cocktail parties.  The ass-kissing is nauseating along with their ever-agreeing-yes-men-bobble heads sucking up to those they feel can advance their career. 

I love my humble appearance and nondescript possessions.  That way I know the people who talk to me at cocktail parties are at least genuine in making conversation with me.
