He was dissatisfied, well even depressed;
he had achieved much but,
somehow it never turned out how he expected
and he never seemed to get what he had wanted.
Perhaps a change?
Redecorate, new car, another house, another wife?
He tried a few of them and
somehow it never turned out how he expected
and he never seemed to get what he had wanted.
He tried researching this ground hogging experience,
‘ah’ he said ‘perhaps this is it’
as he leafed through the books.
‘True freedom is achieved through surrendering desire’
it said on the page.
‘Perhaps if I surrender my desires I will finally get what I want’
he mused.
But he just didn’t get it, and
somehow it never turned out how he expected
and he never seemed to get what he had wanted.
And one day, he got it, and
somehow it never turned out how he expected
and he never seemed to get what he had wanted
and he was very happy.
