War of the Mind

in #thoughts6 years ago

This world leaves you wondering whether or not what you are doing for Self and family is enough. That word, enough however, is strangling the persons right to just be when thought of on societal terms. For when is it ever enough? How do we truly measure what enough is for us?

On a subjective level we think of enough as the amount we need to satisfy this craving. Do we dare think about why this craving exists? What we do on an everyday basis just to "survive" and then some seems to have no real consequences on the mind of many. Why is that you may ask? Because of the personal definition of this word, enough.

It is the moment where we are battling between our "wants" and our "needs". How easily they can be twisted when commercialism amd consumerism is thrown in. The -isms that deems to drive this world mad. What is it that we truly need to live? Water, shelter, food and compansionship. Not the constant stimulation that deems to burn out your natural from overuse and the speed. Our intelligence does not lie in how much you can multi task but in how focused we can be at a single task. What is wanted is the quick resolve to life. Yes, life should be simple but when you complicate it beyond recognition what can truly be done?
