A note from Julia

P.5 The world is constantly telling you that the path to a better life is more,more, more-buy more, own more, make more…You are constantly bombarded with messages to give a fuck about everything, all the time… Why? My guess: because giving a fuck about more stuff is good for business. And while there is nothing wrong with good business, the problem is that giving too many fucks is bad for your mental health. It causes you to become overly attached to the superficial and fake, to dedicate your life to chasing a mirage of happiness and satisfaction.
