In high school, I wanted Adidas shoes – the white shoes with the blue stripes. All the cool and popular kids had them and I wanted them. If I had those shoes, I would be cool, and everything would be great. If I just had those shoes. I look “out there “and I want. A bigger house. A different car. A better meal. A better vacation. A better body. A smarter brain. A bigger heart. Whatever I don’t have and looks better than what I have (and what it looks like everyone else wants and has), I want. The funny thing is that I look at all the “better” things and I never fully appreciate what I do have – and yes, I have more than many people in the world. But that’s not enough. Will anything ever be enough? No. There will always be more to want. It is a never-ending quest. It’s better to be happy with what I have and who I am – not in a “oh well, this is as good as it gets” way. But with true acceptance and love for who I am and what I bring to the world. I am an individual with unique talents who was brought to this world at this time in this place for a reason.
