Desire is not the image destination. It is the entire journey.
Level 1: Do we "want" something? People often ask that when they fall short of achieving that thing.
Level 2: But do we "want" to "want" that object at all? This is the question to be asked. The proper human already has the means to achieve any desire that they desire to want.
Can humans fly? No.
Do humans want to fly? Sometimes.
Do humans want to want to fly? Never. Humans know it is an impossible task.
But what about expanding borders? There are no borders. The human "soul" is limitless. The Level 1 desire is in the soul. We can want anything. The level 2 desire is part of the body. Level 2 is what keeps us attached to reality.
And if that's not satisfying, THAT'S WHAT ART IS FOR.
So from now on, after you ask yourself "do I want this?", ask "do I want to want this?"
