gordon b. hinckley said, "you can never get enough of what you don't need."
i have been thinking and thinking about that this week. when i have a hole in my heart that only love from another person can fill, no amount of anything else (like chocolate chip cookie dough) can fill that hole. i can shovel it in all day, and
it makes no dent.
often what i really need is God. one tiny whisp of His spirit is enough, but no amount of TV will fill me; and will, in fact, take me farther and father away from having my need filled.
if i need the self-respect that comes from accomplishing my goals, i will awaken from my two hour nap frustrated, unfulfilled and empty.

Is it blasphemous to say that Gordon B. Hinckley is my favorite prophet?
Also, does this mean that I don't need to keep buying clothes all the time?
i know you are being funny, but here's a real answer: it depends on what you give up for them, and if they really satisfy what you are really wanting.
no, it's not blasphemous.
