Desire
We are being built of desire. All life has desire. Desires are more elaborate needs. What gives rise to desire is the very real, primal, even visceral need for growth. You aren’t in control.
The subconscious knows only need, and it prioritizes needs. Your conscious mind experiences desire in a sort of second hand fashion. It has really only one desire of its own, make sense of incoming sensations. Your conscious mind actually knows nothing. The subconscious knows everything you know. It has the root code for it all. Your reality is real to the degree that it stabilizes the subconscious mind, centers your consciousness.
“Serendipity. Look for something, find something else, and realize that what you’ve found is more suited to your needs than what you thought you were looking for.” Lawrence Block
“In my experience, there is only one motivation, and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it.” Jane Smiley
