Model Essay(范文)：
I think it’s probably true that people are neversatisfied with what they have. They always wantsomething more or something different from what is theirs. This just seems to be part of ourhuman nature. Look at a toddler, Give her a toy to play with and she’ happy—until she seessomething else. Then she wants that other toy to play with. If she and her brother are eachgiven a cookie, she’ll look to see whose cookie is bigger. She’ll protest loudly if she thinks herbrother is getting more.
“The grass is always greener” is an old expression, but it’s a good expression of how many ofus feel. We’re always striving for a better job, a nicer place to live, a fancier car, or moreexpensive clothes. Part of this reaching for more and better is because we care about whatother people think and want to impress them. Part of it is trying to make ourselves feelsuccessful. But there’ also something in our nature that tells us we can do better and reachhigher.
This isn’t always a negative quality. There’s another saying: ”A man’s reach should excess hisgrasp. Or what’s a heaven for?” It’s a good thing to be constantly pushing ourselves andlooking for something different. If we don’t try for more and different things, we begin tostagnate, like a pool that doesn’t get any fresh water.
The problem comes when we won’t let ourselves be satisfied with anything we have. If we havea comfortable life and still feel as if something ‘s missing, then we need to look inward. Thesomething that’s missing may be in our spirit.
