I wan't some more

Human emotions can be quite abstruse. Its really difficult to comprehend oursleves, let alone others. Each and everyone is unique. Yet, there is one feature omnipresent when it comes to this race. Actually, it is synonymous with the Animal kingdom. This is the quest for more.... not the greed...the insecurity that you dont have enough. The hoarding mentality plagues us all.
On the prompt I am sure every one of us will be up in arms, but I would still hold up my end on this one. It might not be as evident in some as in others, but prevalent nonetheless. As as adducement I would like to give the example of my grandmom. Before being my grandmother, shes first a mother to my dad and his siblings. But before that shes a mother to all the steel vessels she possesses. Her benevolence bears no equal till we are not talking about steel. As soon as she sets her eyes on any metallic object you know she wants it, and believe me she makes no bones of it.
I guess the reason for this syndrome is the fact that there is no individual on this planet who is insecure-guys desisting are the most insecure ones. Ther is the constant urge to be reassured probably because of th socail natuer of man.
Anyways bored of typing. Comments welcome.

As Nietzsche said:

"So you want to live 'according to nature?' Oh, you noble Stoics, what a fraud is in this phrase! Imagine something like nature, profligate without measure, indifferent without measure, without purpose and regard, without mercy and justice, fertile and barren and uncertain at the same time, think of indifference itself as power - how could you live according to this indifference? Living - isn't that wanting specifically to be something other than this nature? Isn't living assessing, preferring, being unfair, being limited, wanting to be different? And assuming your imperative to 'live according to nature' basically amounts to 'living according to life' - well how could you not? Why make a principle out of what you youselves are and must be?"
