Thank you so much for spending your precious time on revising my essay!!
There is an old Chinese that goes ; "Never satisfied of what you already have." This is very true of a lot of people today, and I am one of them. From my point of view, being greedy is in the nature of human beings, because to some extent it improves our living conditions and the quality of our own lives.
We always seek that which we do not have.
Luxuries are the dreams of most women, just like a Mercedes Benz is for men. I know, many young girls who will save for several months simply to buy a LV bag or a Gucci coat, and alsoa number of men who have taken out huge loans to buy a new car, which are all very common in today's society. They all indicate and prove one fact; that people keep asking for more, even though it may be unaffordable or unnecessary.
Staying interesting and exciting are two essential parts of everyone's daily life. We need different elements to refresh our lives, otherwise it would be boring and unendurable. That is the reason why so many adventure-lovers will put their lives at risk by trying to climb the highest mountain in the world, swimming across one dangerous canyon, or bungie-jumping from high bridges.
Many of us may not only have one boyfriend or girlfriend in our entire lives, and sometimes we dump him or her, not due to the fact that we are not suited, but from becoming bored with only the one person. It is widely seen that individuals look for some interesting elements in their partners, and not to just keep talking about those topics that have already discussed hundreds of times.
To sum up, humans are born to be greedy, which could be easily proven by what we do and what we like.
Wearing new clothes, doing different types of sports, travelling to different places or dating with different boys or girls, are all the evidences of our never-satisfied characters. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An interesting essay. (26)
