Lost pair

It seems I always lose one of my earrings.
I have many pairs that I truly care about, but I don't know how I do it, each time I discover I've lost another one.
It happens exactly the same with gloves. As a matter of fact I have a bag full of gloves.Gloves without their pair.
I just imagined myself walking by with a red glove for my left hand and a green one for my right. Haha, and of course with different earrings.
I try to make it seem funny, but right now I'm kinda upset.

What happens then?

It was brought to my attention that people tend to develop fake NEEDs.
Daily, we are faced with a tone of information.
How much of this unspeakable enormous quantity do we really NEED to know?
Hard to say, but the fact is we can't tell anymore: is it the mass-media?
is it the society?is it our own limits that we tend to build around and between us?
What is this difference between what we really NEED and what we are induced to believe so?



I presume you are familiar with Maslow's PIRAMID. The first time I saw it(a few years ago) I found it veeeeeery interesting. I could write many pages about it or talk for many hours, but that's not the reason I am writing this right now.

I'm having a lot of random thoughts about needs, wishes, real needs, dreams, hopes, illusions and what are people actualy looking for, but there is this main ideea that's been haunting my mind latley and had also been proven to me in different contexts:

Sometimes what you are desperately looking for (or what you think you NEED), could be right in front of you.
You can either see it and enjoy it or you can pass right by it, having no idea of what just happened.

But the question is: what do you do when you eventually open your eyes and realize you just passed by what you were looking for?
(let's also presume you can't change anything now, and that you are just like a helpless outsider of your own life, reviewing it, but from a much objective perspective)


What happens then?
