We learn to live in lack We convince ourselves that more is better We forget to realize that more will never be enough We run in circles tirelessly searching for something that we can never truly find We leave behind the child that could be amazed by a single blade of grass We're taught to "accept reality" We adopt an an autopilot way of life We do so much because we feel "we have to" We jump from one thing to the next, one conclusion to another We pretend to know We almost never pause We almost never question We almost never stop to think for ourselves We almost never honestly ask "why?"
