Deep thoughts

Mindset change
focus shift
with not an ounce of reality

Something to hope for
because I need the feeling of hope.

When you know that something isn't right
does it make it all the more intriuging
to see if it could actually happen?

Why do we test the water
when we know the possibility of drowning exists?

Maybe it is the build-up of emotions
that takes us to that point.
Or maybe it is fate.

Others may say
the greatest point to reach
is contentment.

Why are we always looking for more?
Happiness would not be
so fully expressed
without its opposite - sadness.

It is similar to how we can
appreciate the sunshine
after a rainy day.

Why is it so difficult to be happy
with contentment?
