When we didn't get what we want, or been taken away from what we used to have, we often feel unsatisfied, sad, sometimes, unfair. I understand the phrase "unlimited wants" as I learnt it in my economics lessons few year ago. But in these few months, I experienced, and truly catched what it means: I've been learning guitar since May this year. The first guitar I bought was a classical guitar. At that time, I felt content and indeed blessed as I have the chance to play the guitar. After my first guitar lesson, I thought I could give up anything I have because my dream came true - learning to play guitar. However, in these few weeks, I've been listening to a lot of rock songs. And I wanted an electric guitar. I begged my parents for it and now I got it. This was easy but honestly, I do think this is a bit extravagant. I almost got everything I've always wanted since I was born. Why "almost"? Because now I want an acoustic guitar! This is the problem. "What I want" never ends. This is where I have to stop. Instead of forcing myself to not think about things that I want, I will keep reminding myself what I already have. Being able to type this post is already something I should be glad, satisfied, and thankful. Peace ---------- Jacqueline |
