What More Could There Possibly Be...?

Everything In Hand... Now What?

By 2ruffles

Before I had even realized it... everything was in hand. Anything I could have ever wanted, even everything I DREAMED of... was all mine. It certainly felt fulfilling, like I could just kick back and relax, not having to stress over anything, it was as if nothing mattered anymore....But, it was at this point... I didn't know where else to go from here. In fact, I felt the same way I did back then, when I felt like I had all I had...well...wanted. It's even crazier to think I had very little I desired. Was it really alright for me to just...relax and a live a laid back life? After everything I had gone through... all the hard work I put into to get where I wanted to be... it just felt, so off. It was like it didn't feel right.

At times, when someone gains all they ever wanted, they CAN feel accomplished... fulfilled. But other times... it could end up making you feel like a void, with nothing to fill it up with. Just black darkness, An empty shell of who you were before you achieved all you wanted. Or worse... depending on one's desires, it could even lead to corruption. It could lead them for want to desire more... even if they know better they already have all they want.

Thinking there was nothing else to work towards, I turned to the people around me... They say that the most important thing in life, is spending time with those closest to you. Now was the time I truly found out what that meant. The more I thought about it, it made me realize a lot. It truly doesn't matter WHAT we have, but those around us, who make life worthwhile. The things we have in hindsight only serve to enhance the experiences we share with each other. In the end, it's no different than money. It is something useful to make the experience all the more enjoyable, make us happy, only for it to be discarded in the end. Like when you go to an amusement park, and go out. 

Compared to the people we surround ourselves with? It doesn't even begin to compare in value.

So as it turns out, the road doesn't end here, even with you have everything you could have ever wanted. Happiness is found with the people we cherish most, the experience we share... with EACH OTHER.
Hehe... if only I understood that sooner, but now that I do. I don't plan on missing my shot. There's even more room for growth, and as I dive deeper into enlightenment, it's time to share the cherished memories with those who matter the most, all the while I aid others in having happy lives.

  1. Reminds me of how the existentialists used the myth of Sisyphus: you gotta find joy in the journey somehow or another because the destination itself is meaningless.
