The demon of desire

Weird isn't it, sometimes, you seem to feel a sudden sense of despair without any apparent reason, somehow you feel as if they world has left you behind. That's the demon of desire. It's a syndrome unique to urban jungles, where ferraris and zondas roam the land, where sky scrapers and million dollar mansions root the earth, where pimp my ride's the hottest show in town.Its as though god made the world to be equal, but this disparity of wealth is driving the sanity out of your head. Maybe.. humans are just built this way, feelings and desires are made to be out of mundane control. That's why the its said that humans are born into this world to suffer, to suffer from worldy desires.

Just like what shixiong says, it would be probably better if we were born in the mountains, where there's less exposure, you wouldn't be plagued by such secular matters, ignorance is bliss, what you don't know of, you don't need. Humanity will never be able to attain contentment as long as jealousy is at work. What others have, you want it too. As per what shixiong said, when you are renting, you just yearn for a home to call your own, when you have a house, you yearn for a villa. When you don't have a girlfriend, you just hope to have someone by your side, but when you finally have one, you want Miss Asia, and when you have miss asia, again you yearn for Miss World.

Its a vicious cycle, but nevertheless, although feelings are not within our control, we can help ourselves by focusing on today, the things in front of us, by giving your best to spend each day as happily as possible, that way, life would be less agonizing.
