apathetic contemplations

how sad when one becomes jaded.
when the simple excitement of everyday pleasures become bland.
when you've been spoiled by something so good, something you thought to be lucky
to have as a routine..
now has made one discontent.
are you less of a person at this point?
more high maintenance?
or just apathetic? will one strive to find something different or will they deal with what is making them now discontent?
does that make one greedy?
there are those who would kill for the life you live...
there could be a fine line between jaded and spoiled.
depending on which direction you're coming from.

or maybe what one is now jaded with was never good to begin with....
i guess that's just what one calls no longer being able to fake content-ness.
no longer being able to go through the motions of meaningless duties....
no longer being able to settle and compromise what you really want.
one could say that would be making progress.
from the beginning you had been unhappy.
is this making progress?

when it comes to our own individual satisfaction, we could hurt others.
selfish? or necessary?
i suppose that depends, as well.

the street art is amazing... saw more great work, but felt this piece
was appropriate for my post.
