Random thoughts about shopping...


Recently , I always concern about the window phone.

This leads to the topic of today: About people 's consumption concept. Today is a pure commodity society, all kinds of beautiful merchandise evoke different consumers' appetite , and the businessers try their best with a variety of ways to make you hand over the money in your wallets. Of course , this is the inevitability of the social development , when people have had the basic needs for goods , the merchants begin to prey on people's spiritual enjoyment . Something, represents the identity, status, may be a kind of a taste, constantly break into our lives. Then the problem is coming: some people through these commodities show some different characteristics of their own from others. Comparison has formed .

In fact , this kind of psychology has existed for many many years. People tend to show off through holding these things in this way, to show their tall or out of the ordinary , or set off the others are humbled . Therefore, some people will be deliberate by holding something , to achieve equality with others. so that you precisely fall into the trap of the merchants. There is only competition among the merchants , but the victims are always those consumers , but when they get their favorite products , always smile with satisfaction.

There is a old saying in China: there is nothing in the world, just some stupid people create trouble for themselves. All problems, are actually created by persons , in turn, torment themselves. A lot of truth, in fact, which has been explained by our ancestors very clearly , just because we take into account the reputation  too much,we, from generation to generation, have been making the same mistake.
 
We may have heard some word like this : human are senior animals . But the human beings in the final analysis can not escape the scope of animal, they just have a smart IQ. Maybe you will  refute : animals kill each other, people will not. Could it be said that this kind of comparison is not to kill each other? This kind of psychological game is a bloodless struggle!
 
May be I have digressed from my topic. If I continue to write down, I am afraid that I can not control my mouth. I will stop here and say hello to you everyone.

  2. I like Chinese's old saying. It's a good philosophy that is classic. Sometimes we just cannot differentiate what exactly we 'need' and what we 'want'. Thanks for your lesson learnt.
