What makes us want something different?

Asked by Hawaii_Jake (37370points) May 18th, 2011

I hear many people wishing for something they don’t have. There’s a sparkle in their eye like they know if they could just have this one thing, they’d be satisfied.

But they obtain that one thing, and soon they move on to another desire.

Is this the normal state for humans or just modern, Western people? Why can’t we be satisfied ?
