WHAT DO YOU DESIRE?!
"Every desire we chase is just a search for a feeling. We do not really want "it", we want how "it" makes us feel." - Harry B. Joseph
This really made me stop and take a look at my desires.
Deep diving into those seemingly superficial desires can reveal so much about what we are missing in our emotional life.
We, as humans are so conditioned to look at the surface of things, at our material world to try to find the next thing that will make us happy for about 0.35 seconds, and then we are on to the next thing.
We are never taught to look deeper. To FEEL deeper. To see where that desire comes from and where it can lead.
This week I challenge us to look into ourselves when we think about a desire, and ask these questions:
- When was the first time I decided I wanted/needed "insert desire here"
- What do I think I will get out of achieving / having "insert desire here"
- What feeling am I hunting for by wanting "insert desire here"
- How can I take the shortcut and go directly to the feeling without having to chase "insert desire here"
