Be it power, fame, wealth, health, beauty, emotional or physical being...we're bound to be continuously seeking any of the above, simply because- we're not satisfied with our present state.
When you've never eaten a sweet, then someone comes by, gives it to you-you'll chew on it for a moment, feel satisfied for a while. Then suddenly see another kid with a pack of sweets & think : " If i can have a sweet, why can't I own the whole pack too?"
Being rational human beings, we do not want to settle for any less than what we think we deserve. So. where exactly are we heading?
At first, you'll say "I Know where!"
Then as time passes, "Somewhere..."
Soon, " I don't know where..."
& Finally - " Nowhere."
You can choose to place yourself out of this vicious cycle- think back of initial state, and look at the present. If you've gone further than before, be satisfied. At least for a moment.
Final note: If you can't change the way things are , at least you can choose the way you perceive it.
