Relative Deprivations
Relative Deprivation and Desires
I am unhappy because I've compared myself with a happier person than me today,
I will be happy tomorrow if I compare myself with less fortunate people; measuring my rate of success parallel with their motion and gains,
Relativity in all forms cause agony today or later,
Instead, I should compare my state with my very own essence- what shall and what I ought to become!
But, what if my potential was never meant to reach the destination?
What if the situation and context never changed-
I am the same from where I begun?!
I understood now that we fight relatively every now and then, only to change the circumstances that circumscribes our enormous dreams and potential,
Inner calling- whatever we call it,
We love what fulfills our desire,
Desires shape our action, so does the future!
People varies only in terms of desires to desire!
