in search

many people go thru life in search of something. that elusive something. whatever it may be.

a something that can complete them or give them the sense of contentment. this elusive commodity may be sought in the form of money, power, possessions. we always reach for something tangible even though what we ultimately want is quite intangible in of itself. the true substance of happiness is not a commodity. Love, Faith, Hope.

the best things are the ones you cannot measure & quantify. it's the quality of life we all strive for, the things we have a difficult time describing. the things that capture our imagination, heart & soul. the moments that can take your breath away.

but for whatever reason we are compelled to find a way to quantify our lives. always in search of benchmarks. maybe its our need to compare where we are in life. when we are incapable of being content within ourselves (being in Balance), then we turn to outward perception and others to provide signs of such contentment, ie. socio-economical status.
