We often complain about our circumstances. We say we don't want what we currently have and wish for other things and other people. But ultimately, we live the life we want. Everything we have in our life is there because we want it. We may not be conscious of the need that is being met, but there is usually one. When we become aware of our needs, we then have the power to change the circumstances that don't make us happy. And to live a life we really want, and not just say we want.
