That in itself could be considered yet another holy grail. Really, there is no where to go, nothing to do. We build the construct of life. We decide how we want it to be. Chasing after it, whatever it is (bigger car, bigger house, better body, positive thinking, enlightenment), is still chasing. In our society, it's a hard row to tow if you don't "want" anything. And now that we have all the material things we can have, we're down to wanting to train ourselves on how to get in instantly, or wanting to now want.

In Spirit, Nneka Hi TD, it amounts to a lot of chasing and not enough being. That in itself could be considered yet another holy grail. Really, there is no where to go, nothing to do.

Perhaps Jessica Simpson says it best, “I don’t know what it is, but I want it!”
