Anything we can attain, accomplish or covet in the future, is impermanent, unsatisfactory and not self.

.
Otherwise, affluence would equal happiness, riches would bring lasting joy, and power would shower us with peace of mind.
.
.
None of these statements have any reality, permanence to them.
.
.
All things whither and die or change, even rocks.
.
.
Beauty succumbs to age, possessions fail to calm desire, and being important has a false center.
.
.
Try letting go of needing so much!
.
.
Try gratitude instead of desire for a day.
.
.
Try giving to others without regard for reward.
.
.
Try something different than feeding the “Ego”.
