No matter how much we have, there is always something more that we can get. The things we’ve obtained start to lose their magic after awhile, and we yearn for something else to replace them, or at least, to keep the magic alive.
Even if we have everything we need, it’s easy to make a list of what we don’t have. It’s as if there’s always empty space on our shelves, space that’s waiting to be filled by something new, something unique. Even if we’ve acquired everything on our checklist, we can find other areas of our lives that we can have more of, whether that be clothes, extra supplies, collectibles, etc.
It can ever occur once we’ve reached capacity. We’ll figure out ways to make more space, rearrange things, fit them somewhere. At some point, our want of something new will convince us to get rid of our old things. Or we might grow bored with them, and start to reorganize or downsize our stuff. But even so, that call for something more continues to linger in our thoughts, and we must choose whether to listen to it or not.
