Epiphany

Is it wrong to want something more than you need it?Or do you only want things that you need.

Just like anyone else,there have been a lot of things that I wish I could have had and just like anyone else I have had my fair share of disappointments.But if failure to have what you want is such a common thing for everyone,why does it hurt,each time that things don't fall into place and if it hurts that much,how do we get over it?Just imagine a scenario of hooking up with someone,there are 6.5 billion people in this world(I am including the possibility of a person being bisexual),if you like a person,what is the probability of that person liking you back..1/6500000000..even worse than possibilty of Bangladesh winning the World Cup or Chappell and Ganguly making up or Mayawati finding a husband or Veerappan winning the Nobel Prize ,I guess you get the meaning,then what is there to feel bad about?!!

Bottomline,we make it to be a big deal.We just hold on too tightly,we also fail to realize that as time passes even the things we want change/the thing we want changes,and we just hold on to the illusion that everything is the same.Even in the rare cases that we still want the same,we at some subconcious level realise that it is not to be but just don't have the courage of admitting it to even ourselves.

Just like the flow of river where you can't seggregate parts because contents(the water) in the part keeps changing and yet there is a continuity,so it is in life.You cannot define it by moments and people.Nothing in life is too important to let go or too paltry to hold on to. Life goes on regardless of everything else.Things change,people change,relationships change and so do we and our needs.Once you accept that,everything makes sense.
