Wishful Thinking

Who We Are

The days kept going by.
Slowly, surely.

Why do we try so hard?
What is it that we are struggling for?
What is it that we are fighting for?
Rich? Fame? Power? Life? Love?

The answer never came...

Why do we live?
What do we live for??

Some might say:
Why do I even bother thinking about it???

No, we think, we feel, we act, we analyze.

That's what HE has given us.
The power and the ability to think, feel, act, analyze.

But what if the answer will never come?
What if there really is no answer??

At work.
In the office.
So many people are struggling so hard.
Doing their best to achieve higher positions.
From time to time.
Doing anything, almost everything, to achieve, success.

Success?
What does that mean?
To exist? To be acknowledged?
Is the existence of a single human being, so important,
that one should/must, do one's best, to achieve success,
to be acknowledged by others??

Why do people try so hard to achieve success?
That they even forget what they're working so hard for??

Why do we have the urge to grow??
Are humans really created with insatiable feelings??

It's a good thing that humans keep trying to do things better.
Technology to make life better, easier.
It's good.
But will it ever end?
The greed...
The laziness....

Advancing.
Forward.
Nothing will ever be enough.

The world, the earth, it keeps spinning.
As if telling the humans to keep changing, advancing.
Never stop.
If you stop while the earth keeps spinning, you'll be blown away.
Blown to bits and pieces.

How can the world want us to become better,
when it is becoming uglier...?

We're driven.
By who?
By the things around us?
By everyone around us?
It's like no one really knows what they really want.
Losing the truth.

Why do we work,
why do we live,
why do we try,
why do we struggle,
why do we think?

We're too occupied with the routines, so,
we tend to forget.
We tend to stop analyzing.
We're losing the essence of life.
While life itself goes on.
Life won't wait for us.
The earth won't stop spinning.
Not for a mere human being who needs time to stop and think about it all.

No, they won't wait.
The humans, the world, the earth, the sun, the universe.
It's eating away our life by one simple rule of the world: TIME.

So, if you should stop,
either you need it/feel like it,
or you're forced to,
don't take too long.

We're not blessed with that privilege.
We are driven to go along with the absolute rule of time.

We'll never know who we really are.
We are all lost.

Only the chosen, blessed ones, know the answers.
If you're one of them, be thankful.

So, let's just get along with Time.
Don't question things you shouldn't.
Don't question things that no mere human being can answer.
The limitation of time, that's what makes human learn by making mistakes.
Trial and error.
Because we don't have forever.

Let's abide by the rules.
Let's just do our best, while not forgetting how to enjoy life...

Have a nice weekend.
