An interesting observation would be for the author to start considering why this is true. Why does the "universe" give you what you seek? Why do you get from life exactly what you think you "deserve"? It seems strange, absurd, doesn't it? As if the whole thing is a circus, a movie being played just for you.
Now what happens if you simply do nothing? Nothing at all, no hopes, no aspirations, no worries, no dreams, no passions, just live in the present moment, forget about the past, forget about the future. Why keep chasing some illusion or other, trying to satisfy meaningless urges, illusionary needs that others have placed upon you? Open your eyes and SEE.
