Change

The heart’s desires never cease to exist. They just morph from one dream to another. To think if you attain a certain dream, another one crops up in its place before you even know it. You cannot help it, you don’t know when it grows unto you and enters the cracks of your heart slowly gnawing into your mind and soul where it blinds you with its greatness and the happiness it will provide you for what is happiness but an external locus.

And maybe that is how it should be-a dream taking over another and then another. At times you fulfill one and then hunt and search for another and yet sometimes dreams change-you change, circumstances change, your outlook towards life changes. Or could be we are simply greedy and one or some or little or almost is not enough. We want it all.

What you wanted at one point may not be what you want right now and your current desires might not be what you would want a few years from now but life’s task they say is not to wonder about what is vague and hazy in the faraway future but to do the task which is clearly visible at hand. To pursue the dream which you want with all your heart and soul right now. Looking back you will know that dreams change-you might not have imagined you’d want things to be different but stranger things have happened. But yet it is these very dreams and hopes and aspirations and this very wishful thinking is what is shaping your future dreams and building you to be who you will be.

No incident is too small, no dream is too tiny and no co-incidence is too casual even if they change, even if you change, even if everything changes. Just because something is different now does not make that moment insignificant.

Because at that point it was all you wanted.
