“I’m everything you’re searchin’ for / And you’ll never be the same” — Love Shot, Mandy Moore
Life reveals what you desire most. Sometimes it’s subtle… sometimes it’s not.
“The advice to ‘hold on to your dreams’ is all well and good, but there comes a point when holding on to your dreams becomes unhelpful and even unhealthy. Dumbledore knows that life can pass you by while you are clinging on to a wish that can never be—or ought never to be—fulfilled.” – The Mirror of Erised
Be careful what you wish for.
Whatever your desire, you will learn something. If you choose poorly, you may learn the hard way.
Your desires offer paths toward your destiny. Discerning those you should pursue and those you should release is the challenge.
Your destiny is inevitable, yet it is always changing.
How should you navigate?
Perhaps there is a more useful priority than “desire”?
