I am wanting,
Often longing
For something more
Than what I have
Is this just
“The human condition”,
Or first world conditioning?
I said to my husband last night
Given any circumstance
No matter how delightful
I could find a way
To be conflicted about it
My goal since we moved this year
Has been to live in a place of gratitude
It is often the most difficult task
I have ever given myself
I have to wonder why…
When I am surrounded by love
I have food on my table,
A roof over my head,
I have a good job
Beautiful healthy children
A good marriage
And deep friendships
Why do I always want more?
What more is there to want anyway?
Where does this longing come from?
