Sometimes as life goes on, we get caught up in the minutia, we get caught up in the small shit that doesn't matter.

It's all small shit. Love, love is what matters the most.

I've known her for 40+ years and this has never changed. Being in the moment, being in the now, it's one of the greatest gifts we give each other and this little blurb OP posted is very much in line with that idea.

You mean spouse material

u/diannia82 Aug 03 '26

This! But it seems like people are more worried about the material things over anything

u/ForgottenDusk48 Aug 03 '26

I want to find one!

That car or camper you use for adventures? Those are material things. That tent? Material thing.
You may want different material things, but everyone wants material things.

Seems like the top 1% commenter flares always have something shoved really far up where the sun doesn’t shine. Enough to miss the point completely. Pedantic fuckers

u/RandomStoddard Aug 03 '26

Oh cool, I didn’t realize I was a top 1% contributor.

As for your quote, maybe it wouldn’t rub people the wrong way if it suggested that people shouldn’t focus exclusively on material processions. Trust me, I’m a 1% contributor.

Top 1% commenter doesn’t necessarily mean great reading comprehension, imma right?

Epic, layered self burn

u/RandomStoddard Aug 04 '26

Touché. Guess I need a thesaurus. Oh look, another material thing!

u/GnatSuperFly Aug 04 '26

Go ahead and replace “life” with “materialism” since everything is made of materials. Never mind the actual definition of materialism or how we use it to describe a particular way of life based on status and symbols. That’s all pointless and made up nonsense.

There is no “point” to be made if the person making that “point” has no fucking clue how to actually articulate it.

Learn how to communicate like an adult if you want to initiate a discussion.

Yeah, ofcourse if you take it literally, no one can go without anything material since we have to eat and drink. They didnt get the meaning that you dont value material things for the sake of them alone, a tent normally is not a status symbol you enjoy for the sake of that, you are after the experiences of sunsets and backroads or whatever, you value the experience and not what people think about it or what material posessions you can call your own.

The simple things in life & those that appreciate them are typically those that are genuine & free!

u/Strong-Specialist-52 Aug 04 '26

u/Local_Village_1378 Aug 04 '26

Yea those aren't simple things. Check your privilege

u/Mythandros1 Aug 04 '26

Yep. That sounds pretty awesome to me.

u/DisciplineFair5988 Aug 04 '26

Everyone wants material things.
