"The less you eat, drink, buy books, go to the theater, go dancing, go drinking, think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you save and the greater will become that treasure which neither moths nor maggots can consume — your capital. The less you are, the less you give expression to your life, the more you have, the greater is your alienated life ... So all passions and all activity are submerged in greed."
~Karl Marx, Notebooks, 1844

Ah, Matt. I know what you mean.
I don't know if that will ever get any easier for you, but I hope so. Take care.
