I bought some furniture over the weekend , in fact most of you would say it is an essential piece of furniture for a home, and i felt great owning it! I read in this book called "Being Happy" that when one's mood is not very great, he/she can cheer oneself by some shopping because shopping (or any other indulgence that results in spending money on oneself and buying something good for oneself) makes you feel that you have given the treatment that you deserve. For ex. you buy a good new pair of costly shore or you treat yourself to a sumptuous costly meal in the new restaurant , it makes you feel good! And believe me its true!
I was one of those gals who hated the books and ads and movies that showed women/girls jumping with joy just by visiting the nearest mall , no matter how much sadness was surrounding them a couple of hours before. I was like,"these ppl always wanna show women as some kinda stupid spendthrifts wasting money buying stuff that they don't really need". Well I am partly correct even now since I feel its not just women but also who go through the same feeling....... I guess few of you men can throw some light here......
Am waiting to hear from you guys !
