Staging

I can't seem to stop watching those TV shows where they stage homes for sale. I'm amazed at all the work they do to create an illusion that you could walk right in and start living there, when in reality there would be no way you could spend any time there. There's nothing you would need for actual living.

Isn't it an interesting commentary that we have a whole industry devoted to creating this major illusion of something we should all be able to relate to - living? Do we have so little imagination we can't project what a couch would look like in  room? Are we all living lives that are so removed from the lives we want to have that we can't even dream of them?
