We all want to feel accepted, to feel wanted, to feel loved by someone else. It's a natural need as a human since that's how we learn about ourselves and life, it's how we find our identity. However, what if this need is useless and not of any help to us; what if it is more of a hindrance to our personal development and growth as a person. In an article on Lifehack, it lists the things we should give chasing no matter what people say. Some of the "things" the article mentions are people, love, money, approval, and security; we can all relate one way or another to one of those factors. As a 20s something person, I am guilting to chase all of the things the article mentions. I find myself to constantly chase people, love, money, approval, and security and the funny thing is those things do not last once I have them; in fact, they are fleeting; one day, I have people's approval and love and the next day I lose it and they are gone. I don't know if it's a misfortunate or unlucky situation that I am in but I think millions of other people on the planet earth experience it before or is going through the same circumstance; they have everything they want one day and then it is out of their hand the next day. I think when we stop chasing them, when we acknowledge that life might choose not to go our way that 's when we are happy, that's when we find where we exactly belong.
