Of course..thats just normal human behavior. We want what we do not have, and when we have it, it seems to lose meaning..but watch you let it go, and you will start to miss what you loved about it so much. What I do, is stay in the present moment and remember all the things you loved about that thing or person you wanted. Also, if its just a thing, man made..then it really has no meaning. It has only meaning you give it. :) Hope that helps!

ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean. I guess we sometimes place so much value on things that they never live up to their expectations once we have them.
ReplyDeleteYes! I have experienced that.
ReplyDeleteit is a gift from the universe. next time, you can look ahead to the emptiness you know you might feel. then you can "flip" things.
ReplyDeleteanother example, sometimes, if you think of the headache you might have tomorrow morning, you can skip the next drink.
Expectations and projections are the mother of misery.
ReplyDeleteI can relate . . and I ask myself the same question . . but I believe its best to have it and be disappointed then not have it at all.
