［隨筆］What Do You Want? (圖)

In this world, we will have to give up what we have to get what we want.

It is fair and square.

However, if we want nothing, then we will have nothing to give up.

There are many things that we actually don’t need, but we think we should have or want to have. Do we really need them? Most of the time, we don’t.

We came to this world with nothing and we leave this world with a lot of things behind. All those things we have are nothing to us once we are gone, but they could be many heavy burdens to others once we are not there to take care.

On the other side of this coin, people do need to exchange things with each other, what you have no use for may very well be needed by others, and there are good things we should share with others.

In that sense, owning something is great if we can share with others. If we all give up something we have and ask nothing back, I think we all will be saints.

Although I know I am not and may never will be, I want to give it a try anyway.
