The complicated chemistry of human preferences!

Nothing lasts forever. Nothing. It's a strange coincidence of sorts that some things which exhaust faster than others are the very ones we treasure the most. Contrarily, things towards which we have an aversion to surprisingly seem to drag on till perpetuity! Or is it just the other way round? Are nice things nice only because they conclude quickly?

But why do all good things necessarily have to have an end? Is it a mere celestial quirk to make us realize the importance of appreciating the worth of good things? What if we try really hard enough to make a cherishable experience last for ever? To think of it, even if we are successful in doing so, would a contaminated sense of euphoria assured by its everlasting nature be worth it? To be more overt, the deep inner craving for the unattainable is precisely what makes it seem so good to us!

So is there a way to escape this complex maze of human desires? There must be. But would it really be worth leading a life with nothing to yearn for? Aren't unfulfilled dreams the reason which make us want to witness the tomorrow? Even if we do fall short, it's the possibility of this tomorrow becoming a memorable yesterday is that what makes every moment of our lives worth living!


This time around I haven't got anything to say..We would be fools not to know, that silence does like a cancer grow!..
