And?

Have you seen that new coke commercial where the guy drinks the new coke zero that has no caffeine and no sugar or something and the guy keeps going 'and?' because he wants more from life? That's one of my favorite commercials because it captures America how it is right now. For example, Lindsey Lohan. She was perfect: she had money, she was famous and she was pretty. But she kept saying 'and?' and couldn't find anything better in life than what she had, and look where she is now. I always thought I was above things like this. Well, actually, I thought I was above being that average teenager that wants too much. It was easy being that depressed teenager. Being sad because I didn't have this or didn't have that. But it's funny. I made a little  'dream life' I guess you could say a few months ago, of how I wanted to be right now. And it's all here. I should be happy, right? Everything I ever wanted? But I just keep finding myself saying 'and?'. What else is out there for me? What else can I achieve? What is God's plan for me? These questions and the never ending 'and?' keep running through my head.



But this is the biggest question of all, running through my head: How much does it take to be happy, and how much is too much?
