Its all about desire. All human beings desires. Who don't? You walk on streets, you see different colour skins or people with same skin colour as you but I strongly believe that different people have different kind of desires. They may be the same race as you but things that we want might be totally different.
Top 5 Desires(not in order)
1. Be wealthy
2. Be healthy
3. Be handsome or pretty
4. Be popular
5. Be happy
I guess a lot of people's desires falls on the above. Who don't want to be rich and not work but to sit down and shake leg?? Who don't want to be healthy? No one wants to live in pain with sicknesses or illnesses. Who don't want to be handsome or pretty? To attracts opposite sex attention. Who don want to be popular, who don't want to be happy??
Everything in life falls in the trap of desires. The more we human desires, the more we want. The hunger will never end until we die off.
People living in poverty desires to live a better life or to be rich. Slowly, their desires become a need and they will start to hunger and hunt for it. It may get so serious that people use all their might to get what they want by stealing, robbing and more. They may get lucky to slip off once or twice but can they get off so easily forever? The consequences are undesirable.
People tries hard to be happy. Not to be so stress up in life. But the more they wanted this to happen. The more stress they got. They never really realise that they are already in happiness and joy. Our expectations are to high that we ourselves can't fulfil and reach it. People end up devasted, tired, drop into huge depression or even the worst case, no will to live in this world.
Handsome and pretty. Right into topic huh. This is what most of the teenagers look up to. Appearance wise come first. Inner beauty second. I, myself, a teenager got to believe in that. Even though not all will look into appearance but I believe more than 70% of teenagers do! Below average looking girls wanted to be pretty. Average looking girls wants to be gorgeous. Pretty girls want to be the most prettiest among all. This serve the same to guys out there. But the percantage of being vain is lesser though. But why girls will think in this way and vice versa? Its simple and understandable isn't it? Guys want to find pretty gals as their partner and its serves another way round also. This desire will only make people grow sick and bring more competitveness to this world. Bigger size people decides not to eat to slim down. People spent more money on make-ups(for girls) and dressing(for all). People just can't to satisfied by their own looks and beauty. This desires may lead to change of character of a person.
To me all desires may change a person totally. Change a person's character, thinking, emotions and also from a heart of gold to nothing. The more people desires for stuffs the harder they have to work for it. Work and work and work and work... Endless desires endless work to do. Slowly a person's original self changes to a person others can't accept or even worst. Even trying to help or solve a problem for our friends and family are also a desire. Nothing in this world is not desired by people I guess. Even I, myself are like this. Kind of sad case here.
I just want a simple and happy life. Even this is simple, short and sweet I guess. But aren't this still desires?
