Dopamine, these neurotransmitters,
crucial for rewards, motivation & pleasures,
helping us grow, learn and evolve,
yet, it's now become an addiction,
with our behaviors, causing a surge,
brain adapts to repeated exposures,
reducing production & its receptors,
decreasing ability to experience pleasures.
Yet, our society has transformed,
inventing ways to promote systems,
triggering release of these hormones,
to initiate & sustain the conditions,
where we find instant gratification,
with the use of various stimulations,
creating constant flow of addictions,
to social media, food or television.
It's a blind pursuit, towards indulgence,
to satiate the hunger, inner emptiness,
yet, forgetting fundamental component,
of ending chase, achieving contentment,
requires us to surrender, fleeting impulses,
maintain a balance, in duties & ambitions,
when we understand, deeper mechanisms,
we develop strategies, for healthier engagements.
The answer lies, in moderation!
