Yup, you are probably right Mark.
Or it could just be a greedy want to have somewhere nice for your kids to play, to lie on and look at the sky after a crap day at work, to keep the dust down around your house, to see the snakes or dog poos before they get you, to feel the cool and texture under your toes when knocking back a few with your friends, or to find your own little 'space'.
Mind you I do live in my own little world full of out-of-control illusions that make me happy.
