Fading Hope

Why do we chase the impossible? In a world where desire alone doesn't seem enough to quench our thirst for ambition, we often pursue the things that are out of our reach. Like an improbable comet shooting through the skies, blazing the skyline as it passes by, awing the watchers down below, we elevate ourselves to a state of delusions as we embark on unfounded quests in search of unassailable dreams.

 

Man by nature is a rebellious figure with an untapped mind for sheer will and utter desire. It seems that wanting no longer suffices our minds as we delve into a new world of promise and unprecedented expectations. We set the bar too high that we find ourselves competing against no one but ourselves and ultimately fail in our quest. We fall short of unrealistic fantasies and jeopardize our self-esteem as we move closer to the dark edge of our spirits, where failure alone stands and courage is for the weak.

 

Why do we often go on a limb to satisfy what we think we want, when all we need is right there in front of us? Blinded by our greed and vanity, we build mountains around us to shield ourselves from the outside world and sink into our own…before ultimately sinking too deep to a point of no return.

 

Many have lost their way trying to achieve the inconceivable, while others remain on due course to follow instead of harnessing what they have already conquered.

 

In our minds today, stability, love, hope and faith are no longer enough to lead a peaceful and carefree life. Instead, we create imaginary riches and project them into wild dreams that we pursue in the hope of finding happiness…a happiness we do not need but crave to extinguish our burning desire for continuous glory and fame.

 

In our world today, hope has effectively died and made way to a new era in which only few can thrive: the making of humanity has truly changed course as we no longer listen to our hearts and follow them, but rather choose to abide by unrealistic expectations that govern our souls and overhaul human kindness.

 

So the next time you are chasing a dream, close your eyes, take a minute and ask yourselves: Does this dream bring me closer to my happiness? If the answer’s yes, then the dream’s worth chasing.

 

But if the quest you are seeking promises only wild riches and an abundance of power then close your eyes, and breathe.
