The Freedom of Craving Something That Doesn’t Exist

“I’m hungry,” I say, “Starving.”

You offer me a Snickers.

“No, not that kind of hungry.” I push away your candy bar.

“I wish something could fill up me. The endless pit in my soul that craves more.

But I haven’t quite found it.

And sometimes, I wonder if I hunger for something that hasn’t quite been created yet.”

You smile and eat the Snickers. “That just means you can create it for yourself.”
