Third Eye's Blind

It seems to me that most people think either two things:

Things in their life are the only things of interest, stepping outside will land them in a cold, desolate place where they are completely alone.

or

Things outside of their life are the only things of interest. They feel the need to escape, regardless of what position they are in, oblivious to the beauty that surrounds them.

Visualize one person in the middle a bustling street teeming with life. Visualize that street standing alone in the middle of a desert, completely disconnected.

Now visualize someone standing in a barren patch of land, surround by a bustling city. A city that moves farther away every step that person takes.

Neither of these images make sense.

I think they've got it wrong. There's always something going on, always something of interest, everywhere. This should make you realize two things: The world is not as cold as it seems from your bedroom window, and if you ignore what you have in search of happiness, you'll forever be stuck in a state of want.

All you gotta do is open your eye.
