Alhambra is gorgeous, breathtaking, and unforgettable. The intricacy on every wall, elegance of shapes, and sheer size make me want to stay longer than just a few hours. So many of us (girls) walked into the gardens and immediately expressed how we want to get married there. I want to live there. As I passed by some of the fish who live in Alhambra, I thought to myself - I want to be one of those fish so I can live here. That's such a weird thing to think. That inspired me to ask myself where my quality of excessive desire comes from. I do it all the time - see something I like and claim that I want it. The balconies on so many buildings are gorgeous. My future home has to have them. I think it's because I'm American. Our culture has such an emphasis on working. We're constantly striving for something, reaching for whatever isn't already in our hands. We're used to having so many options that opening another door to more opportunities can only be beneficial, right? I don't know where this quality come from. It might just be human nature. I'm not sure. In retrospect though, I don't actually want to be a fish just so I can live in Alhambra.
