Materialism and materialistic way of life both are different concepts. This blog does not explain these concepts in detail but focuses on materialistic way of life characteristics and how to identify the same in one's own personality. Most of us show some spirituality at one point of life. Actually, everybody knows spirituality gives peace of mind whereas materialistic mentality increases the animal craving for more and more needs and comforts. And this blog agrees that at this moment most of the people in this world are valuing materialistic way of life compared to spirituality and in the race of winning and gaining more they are not in a position to think about even the nearby future.
Can you guess how long can these materialistic humans walk on this planet if they continue to crave for more at the present rate? You know the answer is "not much time". Ok. After knowing this answer, are you in a position to come down on your cravings? If your answer is Yes, we all can hope that this planet can survive and cater human beings needs for some more time in future. But, if it is an unfortunate No, then you know that the D-day is nearby.
The crazy logic in this case is that day after day, it is becoming difficult to understand by human beings that for whom they are accumulating all the resources, s/he will not be in a position to enjoy these. The reasons are so many for this to happen. If humans stop this animal craving for more and more, stop following the illogical and irresponsible materialistic way of life, and try to judiciously use all the resources they have at this moment by maintaining an eye on future, we can all hope that planet Earth can survive for some more time as the only planet that holds survivable climatic conditions for human beings in the entire galaxy.
