I’d often thought that desire and craving were the same thing. But they aren’t.

Desire is the energy that motivates and moves your life to be in the world – as a Life.

Craving is desire thats being clung onto too tight; too much identity is being caught up in the wanting, too much attachment invested in the attaining – as if anything you momentarily want or crave for, ultimately means anything, or is going to mean anything in the long run.

I’m becoming more and more adept at catching my desires early. So as to not get caught up in all that waste of energy that turns simple desiring into gross craving.

I’m feeling less “had” by my want to have than i used to be.

Not just about seemingly desirable material possessions.

But about all those apparently desirable experiences i”m meant to be having also.
