The chase

 Almost all our seeking stems from an unwillingness to accept what is as it is.

The present moment of simply being seems not enough.

There must be more that just what is.

What is seems not enough because of the belief that I can do something to improve what is.

That I need more than what is.

The desire for more than what is drives our search.

The possibility of having more than what is causes unrest and discontent.

Chasing more experiences.

Chasing more pleasure.

Chasing more indulgences.

Chasing more feel good stuffs.

Chasing romance.

Chasing sex.

Chasing travel to exotic locations.

Chasing a new career.

Chasing a promotion.

Chasing more money.

Every chase begins in dissatisfaction with what is.

And yet, no matter what you chase, when you attain it, you are back to what is.

The paradox of the chase is that it keeps you chasing.

In this incessant chase for more, what is is always.

We enter into this dream to chase more. 

And the ceaseless chasing eventually tires you.

And then when you can chase no more, you fall back into what is.

Always here for you.
