How far would you go?

 How far would you go to get something you always wanted?
Have you ever been so blinded by your desires that you fail to see what it will turn you into? 

Sometimes, the pretty picture we play in your mind is so tempting that we forget who we are, we may even foresee at what cost will the pictures turn into reality. Being your own person is secondary to having that happily ever after with all gold and glitter. Its a battle of wits and small compromises are often seen as obstacles standing in the way of your happiness.

Yet, how the tables turn as soon as your heaven of love turns into lucifer's playtime. All hell breaks loose.

I blame it on nature and evolution that compels us to never be content. Since, we were designed to evolve. Being happy with what you have or being content with whoever you are would mean we step out of competition, leading to being an easy target in this world. Our survival instincts can't let that happen. 

Which brings back the question, is it all worth the compromise? Even if letting go of things today would mean another year of peace and joy, who holds the guarantee that another bigger picture wont take over your logic?

I had been pondering over this question for a while now, the only answer I could come up with is, we are messy and tangled, and our emotions are one hell of a roller coaster ride. Let's not put a leash on who we truly are.

 Happiness is your own bubble, its how you believe it to be. But one thing is for sure, don't give up on something you have, something that defines you in order to turn your day dreaming into reality.
