Why do we run behind thing which is not achievable?

My favorite Paragraph:

It's really quite simple: None of those things are as interesting as the constant hum of your e-mail, Facebook, or Twitter account. Reality is over-rated, especially compared to cyberspace. Technology has not only eliminated the boundaries between work and life, but also improved both areas.
N'joi the read of full article... its amazing insight into our own life!!!
