      Because it is all around us at all times and everywhere. It is the norm. There is nothing unusual about it so it doesn’t stand out.

      Because we are so focused on ourselves, our own needs and wants.

      Selfish and selfish attitude prevents us from accepting our weaknesses and limitations of the five senses, so it is difficult to accept that the environment affects us.

      It is difficult for us to notice how our environment influences us because we are so far sidetracked from investing in positive social relationships by the cultural waters that surround us.

      We are exposed to hundreds or even thousands of ads a day that create norms and dictate that you should be status-obsessed, narcissistic, compulsive consumerists, and materialists.

      In this way, some values, not always the most correct ones, over time, invade our minds, below the threshold of our consciousness without realizing it.

      Because we are most of our time thinking out me, Just turn it around from  ME TO WE.

      The human ego is totally blown up. No one knows what to do or is capable of actual recognition of it. It’s a dead end.
