Desire And Marbles. By: Franco Yong
August 13, 2008Desire. Everyone one has desires. Even having no desire, is still a desire. Desires can be short-term, mid-term and long-term.
“I want to eat a burger tonight” is a short-term desire.
“I wish to go for a holiday in the next 12 months” is a mid-term desire.
“I will want to make myself $1 million in time to come” could be a long-term desire.
Different people may look at desire differently. There are 2 schools for thought when we speak of desire.
One school would say desire can be fulfilled. Another school advocates that we surrender and renounce desire. It is easy to be in the former school and of the latter. To fulfilled is certainly much much easier than to renounce desire.
