Here in the US, there's a day called Black Friday... and no, it's not called that because it's a Friday the 13th...
It's the Friday after Thanksgiving, when Americans are urged, encouraged, enticed, manipulated, pressured to go on an orgy of spending (using money they don't have) so that retail receipts/profits can go into the "black"... and it marks the lead-up to the gross excess that is Christmas here...
It appears few people question why we would need all this "stuff". Does it add to our quality of life, does it fulfill us, does it fill a hole in our lives, in our selves, in our souls?
Now here's something you might like to know about the origins, creation and final destination of all that "stuff"...
Will this make a difference to your choices this year?
