It could be better ...

Why do we always want more?

Life can always be better if only we had more. More money, more things, more experiences, more exciting challenges, more friends, more status, more achievements and more happiness. Will we ever be happy with what we have? Why do we always want more? 

Let’s consider some talking points and potential perspectives on the “myth of more” to explore with family, friends and colleagues. While we may not have the answer to everything, there are some Christian responses to consider.
Common problems we face
  • We can never finish earning money or wanting more money. In fact, we always want what others have, especially being exposed to the world of social media and influencers.

  • We are constantly bombarded with advertisements and marketing campaigns that entice us to buy more than our necessities. Things and experiences are positioned in such a way that these WANTS are turned into NEEDS.

  • Not only money, but in life, we seem to need a lot more. We need more time, more praise, more acknowledgement, more respect from others, more experiences, a more supportive and loving family, more friends… and so much more.
