what we want?

In our world today, things are pretty much all based on what we want, and how we can get it now. While this is something that not everyone notices, it is unanimous all the same.

This all makes me wonder just how many people know what it means to REALLY want something. Not want something as in "i really want that car" or "i really want that new thing they have at the store". How many people really want something, with all their heart, so much so that it is evident in almost every day they exist...the kind of want where your heart aches, and your mind races at the very thought of it. Theres something to say about that kind of desire..something that exists almost existentially about it through time and space. And for those lucky few who not only have that desire but actually get it..they know true bliss even if only for a short time. I can only hope that more people in the world can know what it means to truly want for something, instead of these passing want's that we invest very little of ourselves into...
