I’d often tried to figure out why the young people here were so miserable. They couldn’t find any joy in anything. A moped at sixteen, a car at eighteen—that was somehow expected and taken for granted. And when that didn’t happen, then it was a let-down, and you were considered inferior. In all my fantasies about my future, it always went without saying that when I set out on my own, I’d have an apartment to sleep in and a car to drive. To break your back working for an apartment or a new sofa like my mom did, that wasn’t part of my plan. Those were the old-fashioned ideals of our parents: to live in order to just accumulate some stuff. For me, and I believe for many others also, those few material things were considered the minimum requirements for life. But then something else had to follow—that elusive thing that makes life meaningful.
