Mankind was built in a way whereby they're always hungry and thirsting for more, yearning for items they're yet to posses no matter how much they've achieved/acquired over the years. These made me begin to wonder if we can really come to a point in our lives where we can boldly say "I have it all".

Pondering on these makes me begin to realize the meaning of Go ye into the world and dominate which was written in the Bible, because obviously the dominating prompt in our genes literally makes us yearn and long for more till our life is being drawn to a halt.

THE ENDLESS RACE

• What do I need to be fulfilled?
• Can we have it all?
• What is needed to come a consensus that we've had it all?
• What will I do if I have all I ever wanted?

WHAT DO I NEED TO BE FULFILLED?

For man to come to a point where they felt fulfilled, then their ambition, aim and set goals must have been achieved, other other word, what I'm saying above it that, there's a need to set different goals, target or aspirations of things we hope to achieve or a height we wish to attain, and arriving at such point brings about fulfillment.

But in my opinion, I think this leaves us with another question, like;

• Is such fulfilment long lasting?

or

• Does it pave way for more aspirations?

Personally I think it leads to more aspirations and desire for more acquisition, but that aside, let dive into the next question on our list.

CAN WE HAVE IT ALL?

In a bid to acquire wealth, live a better life and many more, we've seen people work tirelessly to accumulate all, be it financially, materially or spiritual, but the uniqueness of this pursuit is that whenever a landmark is been attained, the hunger to attain the next greater height springs up, and we find ourselves running once again.

So in my opinion, I think it's impossible to have it all, because human life is channel around an endless pursuit of needs and want.

Not everyone as the capability to come to a state where they'll agreed that they've had it all, but the traits that dignify those who does such is what we can contentment, show me a content individual, and I'll show you a man living a peaceful life with little or no worries.

But despite the fact that contentment seems good, I felt it's a point where we put our lives to a limit, a point where they's high unlikeliness to progress or advance beyond that stage.

Having all I ever wanted is gonna a exciting experience for me, because aside having lot of money, I want to have a good health free from illness and diseases, I've also envisioned having a family of my own with lovely kids and a peaceful lifestyle to crown it all, so in that stage most of my time will be spend with my family, and then I'll use my wealth and status to help the poor and needy, with the hope that everyone will move from grass to grace.

I know what it's like to have nothing, I know what it's like to be plague by illness and so do I know what it's like to feel helpless, so attaining all I ever wanted will make me channel my strength towards leaving that stage of their lives as well.

CONCLUSION

Conclusively, I believe life is a endless journey, filled with so much desire, goals and ambitious, and as we attain/achieve one goal, our eyes automatically gaze at the next possible mountain to subdue, these circle continues until our life comes to a halt.
