People, often mistake the ways of life because they forget to enjoy the moments that conform life. The search for good  becomes the search for bad because what is wanted is to have the greatest sensations but in an obsessive way and this becomes oppressing in the life of others, choking them in the constant demand of a good, which is not good anymore but only to satisfy one of many whims.

This is a very important topic since it is the basis of the control of our own expectations.  Sometimes, we intensely want to have everything but only because of vanity and caprice. Therefore, this good becomes bad when it begins to affect and to deprive the life of the people, who surround us.  How good is to be able to enjoy the best but with everybody !  If this becomes an obsession, then, this good,  is only a need that we  have created.

Perhaps we want a new car, perhaps we want it more modern, more luxurious, perhaps we want to make a trip to a far away and expensive place. I do not think that  is necessary to deny ourselves but I think that is necessary  to act like an educated consumer. Knowing what we can afford and recognizing what we cannot.  
 Maybe, we will face difficult moments trying to reach or to pretend, what we are not. We all, have goals and ideals and this feeling is good and healthy but to  go beyond what we can afford is to be condemned to an exasperating existence, where we will not have the peace, that we could have reached, not with conformism but with the  feeling of being free of many unnecessary obsessions.

We must be spiritually cautious and responsible. At times we may want to demand people to feel and perform as we want them to, as if we had the right to do so.  It is necessary to have the attributes of reasoning, calm and reflection, in life. But, abusing others and ourselves, does not mean that we have really obtained our goals.
But simply, that we are suffocating in the search of a happiness that is fictitious because the true happiness is found in God.  

In order to live a normal life with everything that we need for a healthy comfort, let's not try to be wise in a second, hour or day. Let's not try to be millionaires in expenses. Because we surely are mistaking things.  Let's enjoy the goal, only when we have managed to reach it. To do this, before time, may be a sign that we are confusing the meaning of control, power and happiness.
