In reply to Carin Neloms. Yes!! I totally agree with this. Sometimes our wants highlight the other side of what we need to pay attention too, like filling space with what our wants offer us. I love thinking of desire this way. It gives so much more openness and clarity :) Thank you for reading!

Interesting, My desire is to manage my money better so I can live the lifestyle I want. While I have made changes to know manage my money better, I am completely forgetting live the lifestyle I already have. In other words, I am forgetting the importance of doing fun things because I am too busy trying to save if that makes sense. Balance at the end of the day is very important.

In reply to Tilden. Tilden - thank you so much for reading and commenting! And that's how I feel exactly! The guilt and shame of wanting can perhaps let us in on some other beautiful secrets about ourselves. Have a lovely week!

Loved this so much! Insightful and thought provoking. Sometimes “wanting” comes with guilt and shame for not being “satisfied” with what I currently have, and I love how you’ve reframed this. Thank you!

Chelsea – so happy you enjoyed! I didn’t expect the writing to lead me to that conclusion when I started, so it was refreshing to discover 🙂

I got so much from this! Love the idea of using wanting as a tool for reflection
