Hi Steemians
To figure out what we want in life can be tough. We sit for hours and think about what we want very often. But what is our lifelong dream? What is stopping us of achieving it! What is holding us back! We know that we want to achieve a certain thing and we go for it, but it can seem impossible to achieve.
You know that feeling when you work hard to achieve something, but once you get it you think "Thats it!". It is even worse than failure. Because what we really want is not the car, the house or the loving partner! We want what everybody wants and thats HAPPINESS We spend years in the school, but they dont teach us how to be happy. There are no real programs on how to become completely happy.
We eat to escape hunger, we work to escape poverty and we have sex to escape loneliness. Everything we are doing is to satisfy our urges. We made them as the standard of happiness in our life. That's what we learned from our parents and what they learned from their parents. Everything that has been created by our governments and societies is just to fulfill these urges.
We should dream and our dreams become our future goals which we want to live and experience. We should accept that in our past, present and future there would be success and failure, true love and betrayal, happiness and sorrow.
What I want to achieve now is knowing myself better, have clarity of mind, have peace and feel alive. Thats the real happiness that I am looking for.
Thank you for reading and enjoy your Sunday!

Got what I want, 10 thankful house cats and one half house and half outside cat in the basement. ha ha
The Bloody Mary hhhh Thats a blessing. Cats are a big source of love and happiness :)
Like that "bloody Mary" was thinking of calling her Sissy Mary , been so good and doesn't want to go outside so much. lol
Because the weather is cold and she is enjoying it being at home. But you will see her reaction in the warm days. You will find her everyday waiting for you to open the door. The old memories of being outside hunting will call her back lol And than you decide if she stays "Bloody Mary" or become "Sissy Mary" :)
Dear @hanen i believe that capitalism is the mother of all our problems as it defines our being slowly. We work because capitalism wants it. as you mention health is a sector now. We need money to get back our health. Also capitalism desolating naturel foods with geneticaly modified genomes and stuff. We forced to work for earning enough money to feed ourself with harmfull foods. and cure ourself cause of desolated air by factories owned and organised for capitalism. and from desease which is mostly cause of harmfull foods. Yet i dont belive this healthcare services are helpfull at full potential. So Yet again capitalism prisoned us to its gears. Until we stop it, it will continue stop our life slowly.
You are absolutely right. Unfortunately thats what is going on now a days and we cant stop it unless we change ourselves :(
In my younger years, I'm always dreaming of having a good life, I mean material things.
When I reach my maturity I started dreaming to be a good mother , a good wife, and now here I am. Happy heart ( we may have troubles in our financial stability, but I can say we are truly happy by all means).
I can not say Im the best mother and the best wife, but I thank god for everything i have got.😃
There is not best mother or best wife. Every person is special in something and your success shows that you are very special :)
My grandmother used to say that happiness is moments in life, i think this is true.
Indeed! She is right :)
