Straight Haired Girls, They all want Curls

This is a very lovely country song by Sara Evans called "I Keep Looking":

Back when I was young,
Couldn't wait to grow up,
Get away and get out on my own,
And looking back now
Ain't it funny how
I've been trying to get back home. (yeah)

When my low self esteem
Needs a man loving me,
And I find me the perfect catch.
Then I see my friends
Having wild weekends,
And I don't wanna be quite so attached

Just as soon as I get what I want I get unsatisfied.
Good is good but could be better.
I keep looking, I keep looking for,
I keep looking for something more.
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door.
I keep looking, looking for something more.

Well the straight haired girls,
They all want curls,
And the brunettes wanna be blonde.
It's your typical thing,
You got yin, you want yang.
It just goes on and on.

They say Hey! it's only human to never be satisfied.
Well, I guess that I'm as human as the next one.
Ohh, I keep looking, I keep looking for,
I keep looking for something more.
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door.
I keep looking, looking for something more. (yeah)

Just as soon as I get what I want I get unsatisfied.
Hey, good is good but could be better.
I keep looking, I keep looking for,
I keep looking for something more.
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door.
I keep looking, looking for something more.

And I just really think it sums up pretty much everything about life. There is always going to be that question in your mind, you know the one: "Is that grass greener over there?" The answer is probably not. It's just an optical illusion. Now, I'm as guilty as the next person, say, um, you, but I think it's high time we start appreciating what we do have. So what if your car is two years old, or ten years old for that matter? If it works and it's safe, do you really think it's worth it to pay $650/month for a new one? And so what if your hair is short? Is it really worth the extra work and the insulation all that hair will bring you this summer? And so what if your best friend and every single person you ever freakin' knew is getting married and having kids and you're not? At least you don't have to feed those little fuckers! I say all this to say, appreciate what you have because someone is always less fortunate than you, and if you just take the time to realize it, you really have a lot of good in your life to be thankful for. Even if there is a whole lot of bullshit. And I mean a whooooole lot.
