Lack of Satisfaction

In Trickster Tales, as I was reading the Raven Lights the World section, I found myself reflecting on the theme of satisfaction. In reading the tales, it seems that in many of the tales the lasting message is a lack of satisfaction. The ending line in Raven and His Slave was, "Whats next?". I began thinking of how much of a constant satisfaction, going hand in hand with want and motivation, is in humanity and how it can be so easily overlooked in every day life, making the subtleness of the theme in the tales even more enjoyable.
I began to feel a great deal of respect toward this theme the more I thought about it. It seems that when the term "lack of satisfaction" is expressed the general connotation is one of a negative nature. At least for me, this was the case, but even negativity is central to life. Without lack of satisfaction, there would be no fear of death or failure. There would be no motivation, want of success, a better life, ambition, family, happiness or happiness. We would live in a bland world. We would be the cheerios of cereals without lack of satisfaction. The tales drive this point home in a subtle, but unavoidable voice.
