    Lyrics:
    Welcome to the Grand illusion
    Come on in and see what's happening
    Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
    The stage is set, the band starts playing
    Suddenly your heart is pounding
    Wishing secretly you were a star.
    But don't be fooled by the radio
    The TV or the magazines
    They show you photographs of how your life should be
    But they're just someone else's fantasies
    So if you think your life is complete confusion
    Because you never win the game
    Just remember that it's a Grand illusion
    And deep inside we're all the same.
    All the same
    So if you think your life is complete confusion
    Because your neighbors got it made
    Just remember that it's a Grand illusion
    And deep inside we're all the same
    America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
    Get yourself a brand new motor car
    Someday soon we'll stop to ponder what on Earth's this spell we're under
    We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are

    yesterday my great aunt(grandma's sister) passed away she was also like a second grandmother to me. I also discovered this song yesterday, and even though she would have never listened to this kind of music in her life (she was 85) I feel like her message to me from the afterlife is not to worry about life because "it's a grand illusion". so I listened to this song 100s of times yesterday.

    Story made short: No matter what you buy or have in your possession, it isn't going to make you happy. The only thing that will make you happy is the one thing no one can take from you is your faith. Faith in a better tomorrow and that tomorrow begins now. Positive thoughts draw positivity. Don't believe it? Give it a try. I did and it did wonders for me...and it also helps to forgive and love yourself and do the same for others.

      Seems like you get it, but is not just about material possessions, but more about the things we possess or hold on to psychologically that is detrimental to our physical and mental health. There are things worth holding on to and other things that we should let go or give up, as the Bible speaks of symbolically. I am not religious but do have faith in righteousness and my higher power and as you said, positivity. It sure beats negativity. Carry on, and don't look back.
