Ok, then it's something else. Someone told me once, that when we fight for something and finally get it, even when we have it we should keep fighting for it otherwise it will vanish and disappear.

No, Moonlight. What I wanted, it was not empty initially... And thanks you for the compliment about my display picture :))

I agree with you, Kate.
Of course if i understand you correct. Let's imagine a small desire, for example you wish to eat somethin special, that you have been long time ago. You remember how tasty it was. So you start dreamin, "oh how i would like to taste that cake again". You trying to remember, to fell that taste, seems you don't need that cake at all, because no cake has better taste, that one you think about. It could last forever, but here goes a mistake: you buy that same cake. You take it home, you taste it you eat it. Yes it's tasty as you imagined. And and after a time when you have finished it, what would you think? "so what?" And now what?". The pleasasure has gone in few bites. Like ok, everything is done, thank you, go home, we don't need you any more. And there's your emptiness. Sorry for long story.

I don't think it's like that, I think if you feel empty when you get something you desired before, it's simply because what you wanted was something empty. But it's true we're always yearning for something, it's what give us strenght to move on, otherwise we wouldn't have a reason to do anything, and everything would be pointless, don't you think ? you have an awesome display picture by the way :)
