The Lessons about Lessening Yourself

Should the condition of less inhibit us from doing more?
Should the more we have mean the less we feel?
Yet, less is more

Imagine how convincing the world will be,
as if we're hiking the mountain, going straight up,
where the more means more,
and in the less, means less.

But, what if the mountain we hike is circular,
in a way, we couldn't make sense,
for instance, how the hell is a mountain circular?

Us, trapped in endless motions of reaching,
achieving, accomplishing, succeeding,
failing, declining, lacking, in vain,
forever, doesn't sound right, eh?

Isn't it crazy,
how people in the condition of more, wanting less
so they can learn how to do more with less?

Where people with less dreaming about having more,
only to be dumbfounded that they can't do more,

I think,
they are wise.
