Only For Now

It always seems to be easier to seek what we want, rather than to seek the truth. What we want is a neverending list stretching for miles with all sorts of possibilities. The truth is what lies beneath the illusional facades. As we reach out to grasp what we desire, we ignorantly leave behind the truth. Recognition and money seem to mean everything in this world while we forget about what has always been with us all along. Where have all the simple things gone? The comfort of our friends, company of our family, etc. The way I look at it, getting what we want is not always a good thing. I don't want to forget about what I've always had just to attain the things that seem glorious at the moment. Of course it isn't always bad, but there just has to be a balance between them I guess. By going for my goals, I want to make sure I don't lose myself in the process. For once that happens, I can choose to be who I've turned into or who I really am. So I guess what I'm saying is to keep an eye out for our desires, they could turn into quite a tragedy if taken one step too far.
