Is what we want so badly, already within the reach of our hands, and all that is needed is recognition of the passion to grasp it, or is it hidden and locked away in life's futures?

Depends if we want something realistic or not.

Often, it can be both.

Just because it is hidden does not mean that it is out of reach of our "metaphorical hands". Often, all it takes is our discovery of what we want.

We have our "self", and then there is what is called our "ideal self"(our "self" and then what we would like our "self" to be). Once we reach our "ideal self", we create a new "ideal self", and thus, we can never COMPLETELY reach what we want. Also, once a human gets what they want, they tend to want something new. Hope this helps.

If we want something bad enough of course we can strive for it but i think it's important that we recognise most people already have it,it's being content with what we have is the key to unlocking true happiness.

What I want .. what we want as humans... can be obtained by the action of retrieving it. it's the means of our search that makes the difference.
We don't wish for peace by starting a war.
We don't feed the hungry, by being gluttons ourselves.
