It becomes a force of nature that can move us through the world and back, or leave us buried in the same old spaces with a persistent sense that something is missing. The presence of desire in your body can lift you up and propel you forward, or feel like a weight of sorrow, a reminder of distance on your skin.
So choose to enter through its many portals and let it guide you towards your dreams. Or, you can deny it, push it down and allow it to guide you unconsciously.
What I wish is for us to see the truth behind the smaller and larger desires that map our inner worlds, and to notice how these desires actively move us in the world and through our days. To become conscious of how our capacity to hold a desire can create either a positive, conscious movement toward it or a negative, unconscious flow against it.
I wish for all of us to see that when we unknowingly borrow desires from family, society, or collective myths, we end up living their stories instead of our own.
This is how we begin creating those spaces for others to implant their own desires and ideas. The less we inquire and move along blindly, the less we know about our direction, because we have never created a movement map.
We have no compass to guide us out of the labyrinth.
