Why are we always searching for that one thing that would make us happy?

In search for the perfect house, dress, shoes… mate? When does it end? Are we always searching because we don’t know what truly makes us happy? Or, are we so dissatisfied or disappointed with what we have, we convince ourselves there must be something better out there. Why can’t can we just be happy, and stop wasting time searching for what in the end, may not exist or may not be good for us. Don’t get me wrong, wanting better things is not bad, but the everlasting feeling of discontent is not healthy. Would it help if we start basing our happiness on particular events, and not base it on our entire existence? Happiness is an over rated feeling that if not projected healthy, could cause much heartache, and constant disappointment. There are happy moments, and if we take the time to give them value, they can lead you to live a more fulfilled life. Instead of constant longing, dissect your life, then take each piece and find that happy moment. You may be surprised how much joy you’ve been missing out on.
