Elusive Satisfaction

I wish
I could be like you
Take pleasure in the simple things
With no desire to
Pursue the elusive 
And just be content
Like everythings is cool
But satisfactions hard to get

John, I have to say if you get rid of all the things you do not love 100 percent - including people - you will be amazed at how much time and money you wasted, and you will find yourself ready to do what Peter has advised. Meditation is the key, it truly is, but you have to throw out all the things holding you back and down first.
