We always reach for the next big thing.
A place to belong and some meaning to bring.
A cause to campaign for, a light on the scene.
Contentment is something to get, not to be.
We reach for the brass ring, while dawn breaks–unseen!

This so relevant. Beautiful!
You captured the essence of striving perfectly — and that in our striving we often miss the beauty that is already there.
Oh, I like this. Such a good reminder. The rhyme scheme makes me think of Victorian samplers.
Nicely describing the many who are blind-sided by striving, instead of living.
Never stop reaching, Crystal! We could all use some improvement; striving for something better! A beauty of a write!
