I used to have this theory that everyone should have the best in class of something. Or the upper echelon of something. To experience the finest of something. Something that you enjoy. Something that delights. Elevates. Provides a heightened level of enjoyment or satisfaction. Exceptional.
I don't know if I feel that way anymore. I don't have the means to accomplish that anymore. I don't know if I care anymore. Maybe good is enough. Good enough. Not great. Not exceptional. Ordinary. Boring. Does the job. Marginal. Utilitarian.
No more being a Jones. No more keeping up with the Jones's.
Ordinary. Boring. Average.
Inflation does that. Undesired recalibration of expectation resulting in the lowering of standards.
