Desires

Our desires point to what we believe is lacking in ourselves. It is a trick of the ego that there is something outside of us which will be fulfilling; you know this to be a lie. Everytime you have had a relationship or bought something new, it hasn't been exactly what you wanted or needed. You also know in your bones that the only thing that is reliably and deeply satisfying is the the inner peace you carry with you in every moment. You know this peace is present when your mind and heart are at peace, loving without judgement or reservation. You recognize this because it is who you are and when you recognize it you are recognizing yourself.
