Waking Up Uneasy

Today I woke up with an uneasy feeling. Somethings missing. Its like no matter how hard I try there is a lonely pit in the depths of my being. Why is it that we as a human race always seem to be chasing this fullfillment, this happiness. Why is that we never seem to be content with what life has laid out for us. We need to stop seeing each day as a hardship and a step to where we are going and what we are trying to achieve, but as a gift. Each day we are givin breath to expierience all the great things in front of us. We are so lucky to be alive. Why is that we always need more.

It seems to me that we also avoid things that we are afraid of as if we are afraid that confronting them will bring on some dire consequences. What we fail to recognise is that the true dire consequences come from our fear that leads us to avoid those things that we need to discover or learn about, even if it is through our faults.

There are so many situations I myself avoid for this reason alone. And the ending result is always the same, unsatidsfied and anger for not at least trying. Avoidance is rarely satisfying. They say curiosity killed the cat, well I guess its good that that cat has nine lives. I believe I only have a few left. But now I pledge to use them each to there fullest. No more waking up uneasy.
