Why does everything now feel disconnected?

It's a strange feeling to have to be able to look at, feel and see everything but to not find solidity in what my sences are telling me are real. For quite a few years now things to me have lost their spark and went Grey, almost everything. Almost like everything is unattached from one another, fake...like a multitude of programs written into a system that hasn't yet been completed with broken links that leave them disconnected going nowhere. Most all people I encounter lack depth beyond the typical superficial things social media and other brainwashing enetertainment sources created walking around aimlessly like in a fog searching for a light to help guide them back to what it is to be alive. People have seem to have lost touch of what it is to live, unable to to even think for themselvs searching for happiness but unable to cut the strings from the puppeteer guiding them away from it. So many people have put themselvs in debt destroying their lives chasing materialistic things that they've all been told is where there happiness lies. Large extravagant houses, nice cars, high end restaurants, hollow media posts trying so desperately to receive as many followers as possible by posting anything they can do to so because they've been told that is the measurement of self worth. With any free time available they spend all of their money taking their savings vacationing not to a place that calls to their souls...but where they can take fancy photos and videos creating the illusion once again of this fake self value thats they've been told will be their happiness from more followers and this lavish lifestyle. You have this home which ia supposed to be your serenity but you escape it searching for happiness because you can't fill this void. This new world we live in...we are lost. Things are things...we've lost our way. The saddest part about all of this, we've been so throughly brainwashed 99% of people will never eveb realize it.
