These are the people trying desperately to release tension from within. These are not people who are at peace with themselves. Listen to the lyrics in popular songs. You find the same theme repeated over and over in variations. Jealousy, suffering, discontent and stress.
Life seems to be a perpetual struggle, some enormous effort against staggering odds.
We get stuck in the ' If only' syndrome. If only I had more money, then I would be happy. If only I could find somebody who really loves me, if only I could lose 20 pounds, if only I had a color TV, Jacuzzi, and curly hair, and on and on forever. It comes from the conditions of our own minds. We can tune up our awareness, dredge up each separate piece and bring it out into the light.
