The Mirage of Variety

There exists something known as the mirage of variety, where a person strives to obtain everything – tasting all the dishes, pursuing all romantic interests, visiting all countries, listening to every track, acquiring all the movies, and so on. To begin with, for real – it becomes boring quickly, one can’t experience everything, it’s same the same after all, resulting in a waste of time. Instead, focus on the essence. A human being is not a machine for experiencing tastes. A variety of experiences is important, but even more crucial is critical thinking about what’s happening, the path you’re on, and your ultimate destination. The human mind and time are both limited.
