They Aren't Even Real

You don't have to renounce the toys and trinkets of the world. You can enjoy them. What you have to do is recognize whether the toys and trinkets serve as your God. When you strive for more material goods, you are striving for something that is not real. This goes for anything in the world. You want it, because you believe these things will make you happy. Thus, you have substituted what can truly make you happy, God, with an endless and fruitless search for something that is not even real.
