searching for one's self

Searching for one's true self,  is it fame, is it wealth?
 
A jack of all trades, yet a master of none... 
 
Forever searching in life, for what he can become...
 
he dreams of having 'it all', with many big houses, as wide as they are tall... 
 
The mind continues to search...frantic to find, just one place in life where he will have piece of mind... 
 
How long will the search continue until he feels content, alongside the dreams he struggles to pay rent... 
 
he adds focus to the destination rather than the journey, he misses all the little things that make us wake early...
 
Life is all about experience rather than status, he thinks only of money, his soul on hiatus...
 
If he would only Stop the race and take a second to see, we get one life and it's simply about you and me...
