-God said,"You can either have these cattle, as my gift to you,or you can have the What.".......... "What is the What?".. And God said to the man," I cannot tell you. Still, you have to choose."
The man and the woman could see the cattle right there in front of them, and they knew that with the cattle they would eat and live with great contentment...... So the man chose the cattle...
He (GOD) was testing the man,to see if he could appreciate what he had been given, if he could take pleasure in the bounty before him rather than trade it for the unknown.
-What is the What, pg. 62
Often we all trade the pleasure in the bounty for the unknown. Because, the grass is always greener on the other side and there is nothing wrong about venturing into the unknown if it could or might could change your life. Because we human, never stop wanting things for ourselves. Enough is never enough because it is the new definition of wanting more.
After all, life is like gambling.
It is all about making decision
which feels right to us
but wrong for others.
