Thoughts of Gold

One sometimes sought after gold which was not gold - an honest mistake. It becomes dishonest when we look for that gold - after realizing that it was fool's gold. We seek shining objects, and we wish that something, someone, or anything, is golden. Or perhaps, sometimes, we wouldn't let go of the idea that we would be the one to find gold. But, there are golden objects. It's just that the golden ones aren't objects.
