What I see is people living 'shallow' lives...
Sorry for being judgmental if you think I am...
But what's inside me is not condemnation of why people don't share my thoughts
But rather a much prolonged case of depression....
not much of a clinical case, but rather a spiritual one...
I wish and I pray they see,
Empty pursuits will only lead to more emptiness.....
It dries up rather than fulfills...
They're thirst-enhancers instead of thirst-quenchers
Constant thirst, is that real happiness?
You can say "Yes, I'm contented with a simple life. Simple life pleasures makes me happy"
But are you sure those things are 100% guaranteed to make you 100% happy all the time?
My heart resounds to Stacie Orrico's lyrics of There's More to Life:
I've got it all, but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing
And why can't I let it go
[Chorus]
There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
Than wanting more
I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I'm half way out the door
Onto the next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing
[repeat chorus]
i'm wanting more
I'm always waiting on something other than this
Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed.....
[repeat chorus x2]
Jesus came and died for us so that we may have live more abundantly,
He's the only One who has the key to eternal happiness..
He breathes life in my past world of vacumn
And my current world is starting to sprout love, hope, joy and peace
Indeed to live for Him, brings me unspeakable joy that will never fade away
Despite many disheartening issues of the world around me,
It is that unspeakable joy that reminds me,
There's still something to live for...
