There will always be people and corporations who try and sell us on the idea that the path to a better life is only a supplement, procedure, or product away. But it’s a trap. A lie manufactured to keep us in a perpetual cycle of dissatisfaction. If we know that our happiness and health depend not on a race against time, but a surrender to it, we immerse ourselves in the experiences of life that money can’t buy. When we accept that it is a privilege to age, which is to live, they lose their control, and we gain our freedom.
