Life as we know it.

I have been thinking a lot about life and how it is that we see our life in comparison with others. Often I see other's lives and think that  I might like some portion of their life, long ago realizing that their entire life is not even close to desirable for me, but then I also realize that with things in my life and probably things in their lives as well, if you get a part of it, you get all of it.Everything inter-relates in our lives. So getting that one thing from someone else would eventually snowball and you would end up with everything. So I think that the best option is to be extremely happy with life as we know it.
