the girl who has everything is one who doesn't realize that she does, yet aspires to live each and every moment.

the girl who has everything is one who places importance in things other than wants and needs, but feelings and dreams.

the girl who has everything lives carefree but conscious of her surroundings; aware of the politics, news, and horrors happening.

i have too many worries; i get bogged down by worries, needs, and wants. maybe it's time that i stop wanting, stop needing, and start living. i wonder if materialism is inherent and if i can ever be rid of it. i almost feel like i need to isolate myself in an environment where hungry is really hungry, cold is really cold, and everything is just as it is. almost like reverse: in order for me to appreciate life at the baseline and stop taking things for granted. maybe then i can truly be free from these sordid chains that i tie onto myself. greed, gluttony, and lust.
