Its all relative....

What has value? its all relative i believe.

If you were an Inca of South America, when the Europeans came.
You would value chocolate more than gold, where the Europeans valued gold more.

If your a football fan, then you may value your favourite team, but to a toy railway enthusiast who
doesn't like football, he/she may value a rare model of a train more than meeting with the leagues hero's.

If you were a counter culture anti-consumerism bohemian in the style of a the early beat poets/authors,
who has shunned the world, to pursue personal creative, intellectual and spiritual fulfilment while searching
for answers to the worlds complex problems, you may not recognise consumerism's avatars and hero's, but
instead see them for what they are, the adverts to consumer capitalism, the propaganda that keeps people
spell bound to follow a materialistic enslaved lifestyle in hope of one day breaking free and becoming one of the
beautiful people...

while if you are one of the beautiful people, chosen to advertise the consumer capitalist ideals in your "creative" products of propaganda, then you may laugh at all those in the world who will never know your elitist perspective
of being one of the consumer capitalists master race, Illuminati, Royal Family or what ever name they have for the
"cream" elitists of consumer capitalist society they have this month.... (read it now in NME or watch it now on MTV)...

but to be a cat, day dreaming in a field on a summers day, to feel the breeze caress your belly, while you
roll in the dirt and doze off dreaming of the purrrfect dinner while laying on cotton wool clouds, and surrounded by angelic white long haired Persian kittens.... playing with string....

nothing beats that cat kind of thing, at least, if your a cat... pay no attention to human "super stars" or men from mars, cause their not down with the cat's life...

all is relative.... i think... what makes one happy is relative...

funny how others can't understand why some of us aspies are oblivious to their egocentric antics and vanity....
