Who am I? Why do I never feel enough? **At first…**I only wanted that. Simple, a small wish. But once I got it, my heart whispered again, “There’s something else… look over there.” Then I chased it. I got it. But… there was never a true sense of satisfaction. I was tempted again, captivated again. Wanting something new, wanting more. And it kept going… going… like endless steps. **Who am I?**Why am I never satisfied? Why do I always want more… and more… and more… as if running without knowing the destination? **Until when?**Until when will I be like this? I’m tired… I’m carried away by desires, wanting this, wanting that, forgetting to appreciate what I already have. I’ve entered a circle. An endless circle, where desires rule, and I… am merely their servant. Why do I always want to keep walking… never knowing when to stop? I feel lacking. Lacking and lacking. As if there’s a hole that can never be filled. The first time I saw something I wanted, I believed, “just this.” But once I held it, a whisper came, “there’s something better…” I’m trapped in a whirlpool of desires. Wanting… wanting… wanting… like a thirst that’s never quenched. Then I realized… no doctor can prescribe the cure. No pharmacy sells the remedy. **There’s only one cure: gratitude.** Gratitude… for what’s already in my hands. Gratitude… for blessings not always seen by the eyes, yet present in our lives. Don’t look at those who seem comfortable, because everyone carries their own burdens. This world isn’t a place without wounds, but a place where we learn to accept, learn to be grateful. And one day… the heart will stop running. When we turn inward, and find happiness… not from what we possess, but from the feeling of enough for what has been given. **Who am I?**I am just human. And now I know:**enough is not about how much we hold, but how deeply we are grateful.**
