desire
so when i say that i need something it is half true. i dont need the object itself. but rather the desire for the object. this is how life should be lived. like those people who see the glass half full. they do not see what they lack, they see what they have to gain. they see what they desire. this desire fuels their being and existence. it makes everything worth while. so whenever you have doubt or whenever you feel pain, think of all that there is to gain. because he who lacks everything has everything to strive for. the poorest among us have the most desire. and desire is the essence of life. always be aware of what you want.
“not wanting anything? isnt that a sign of depression?”
