Our desires are our guiding light.

They are not wrong.

They are everything that is right.

They exist, not to torture us.

But to fulfill us.

Our desires are imbued deep with purpose.

You are here, as you are, uniquely inspired, on purpose.

Our desires are derived from the heart.

They provide cadence below our feet

as we move through our lives.

Beating, thumping, sometimes urgently

to remind us why we chose this life.

Our desires, sometimes deep and often fleeting,

Lead us towards that which reflects our soul most clearly.

Like a moth to a flame, eager to dance in it's light.

We are drawn, pushed, and pulled by the energy of the heart

through our desires.

To trust yourself is to trust your heart.

To trust your heart is to trust your desires.

To trust your desires is to live in them fully.

To live in your desires, to be awake in the dream...

Is life.
