This is how we humans are :
If I quit now,
I will soon be back
to where I started.
And when I started,
I was desperately
wishing to be
where I am now.
Really ridiculous. Isn’t it?
We never realise what our real need is. We are always in a hunt for something but never gets satiated with anything. Just as Coelho’s Santiago returns back to the old ruined church, man too returns after being deceived by illusions.

More than achieving it, finding that ultimate aim is the tougher task.
