Predominantly we are exhausted with little things and urging for big things in our lives. Even after accomplishing everything, most people get dissatisfied and feel exhausted at a certain point in time. Humans feel sad, stressed, or even depressed because at some time, they feel the urge to upgrade to something; something they don't even know. They just want to shift their mindset, desires and emotions to something else because mostly they try absorbing energy from tasks, events, people and things than creating energy for them.Do you ever feel bored with everything you love?

The problem isn't when you need someone, but the problem is when you always need someone to become happy, creative and energetic.We are nothing but trying to fulfil our boredom with something interesting, but in that fulfilment, we forget, what will we do if we eliminate it someday when we really want it?It's excellent to live alone without ever feeling lonely in this world.
