Do you ever get the feeling (as Michael Jackson once wrote a song about) "There must be more to life than this"?

Perhaps an overwhelming feeling of your life is too humdrum.
Or perhaps you're totally contented and feel that life is perfect as it is.

Lyrics to Michael Jackson's song

There must be more to life than this
There must be more to life than this
How do we cope in a world without love
Mending all those broken hearts
And tending to those crying faces

There must be more to life than living
A better way for us to survive
Why should it be just a case of black or white
There must be more to life than this

Why is this world so full of hate
People dying everywhere

And we destroy what we create
People fighting for their human rights
But we just go on saying c'est la vie
So this is life

There must be more to life than killing
There must be more than meets the eye
What good is life, if in the end we all must die
There must be more to life than this

There must be more to life than killing
There must be more to life than this
I live in hope for a world filled with love
Then we can all just live in peace

There must be more to life, much more to life
There must be more to life, more to life than this

I often question the state of the world, and my own human condition. I feel this is just natural. No one likes the violence (except for those perpetrating it) and hatred (except for the haters) that is so prevalent today. We all feel very helpless in these days and times to stop the world from spiraling ever downward.

I feel for the children who are growing up thinking this is natural and the way things should be. I don't see a good future for the youth growing up with all of this.

Something drastic will happen to change this, and it is coming to a head, so I'm thinking it will happen soon. I hope I don't live to see it. I pray my children will survive it.

I think that is the nature of people, we cannot be contented of what we are, what we have, aspiring to be on top of everything, then when on top ,we still do not know what is missing, it is never ending. So if we are not feeling contented ,we always ask, Is there more to life than this???? Anyone can have this question, at one point or many points in our life. But life goes on, until you cannot ask anymore. Don't worry, be happy.
