Mirage

What is it that we are really looking for? What is it that our eyes constantly keep searching? That our heart deeply desires?

There is no doubt on the fact that each one of us is struggling to get something, or somewhere. Most of us do not even know what that is, or where we want to go. Some of us THINK that we know. But do we really?

We may have a lot, but we still want more, we want BETTER. Opportunities may come our way and go, love may strike like never before, our career may go places, but we are still not satisfied. We still want better. We let what we have now pass, because we are waiting for something better to come our way. We don't even know what better is, it may or may never come, but we will wait.

Aren't we all just running towards a goal that is nothing more than a mirage? Isn't it time to stop for a moment, and re-analyze what we are letting go of, in quest of something potentially wonderful, but also potentially imaginary? Better may or may not happen. Now is beautiful, because it is real.

  1. I agree. Most of us use our hands to reach out to that goal or that thing far away or that thing that we dont have. If we were instead to use one hand to wipe our eyes to see clearly and the other to knock our head from time to time we would all be more content with what we have and realise that we are heading towards a mirage. Well written!!
