Whenever I want something, the unspoken assumption is that once I get this thing, life will be better, my nagging desire will finally cease

It dawned on me this morning that wanting is part of what it means to be alive. Even though we may reach our goals or obtain whatever it is we desire, that wanting is not going to go away. There will always be something else to fixate on. We are all going through life chasing a moving target. At first this can seem rather depressing. Will we never truly reach happiness then?

I believe we can’t help but to want to be better human beings and do our part to make this earth a more beautiful home for all living beings

My breath become fuller and my back became stronger and more flexible. I felt more confident in myself and I found myself wanting to be a better person, to improve on qualities such as practicing patience and forgiveness, and balancing out the various aspects of life such as work, socializing and play time, exercising, eating well, spending quality time with Rick, spending time in nature, gardening, learning, reading, sleeping. I know that maintaining balance is a constant effort; it’s the dance of life. Yoga helps me to navigate the dance gracefully.

I said why do you talk so much she replied and asked me, why am I so quiet everytime. So I said it was my nature so then I realized what it meant all along. And I felt terrible for my misjudging character. Hopefully wanting me to understand her more. so I learned how to live with others no matter how different you are.

I want some purpose

Keywords: {0}

to be in touch with nature, to do things much more traditionally. To ditch the TV, the busy traffic, social media, and to get out there and do things. My yearning for more, something actually meaningful is becoming overwhelming and actually frustratingly depressing. The more time that goes by that I’m deprived of my natural gender role, the more my natural instincts are kicking in, the more frustrated and discontent I am becoming with life, the less bright I see my future becoming. I know, such a morbid post, but I’m just bluntly and simply expressing my thoughts and feelings as a woman in my circumstances and in this day and age, I know I am not alone.

Several years ago, while Randy Thoreson was working for the National Park Service, he began talking with the Division Chief for Conservation and Outdoor Recreation. “I enjoy doing all of this work with youth,” said Thoreson, “but I think we’re missing a sector of the population. The outdoors isn’t just for kids, you know.”
