wanting-what-you-can-t-have

Paroxysms of pain and twinges of desire leach from universal sources. All human suffering buttons itself to the pang of wanting.

The old adage that people only want what they can__ have or what they can__ tame_ is totally primitive. A being of higher origins will know instinctively that life on earth is a series of chances, moments and concepts. That__ really all that you have. So when you find one of these things and it makes you burn, or it makes you feel peace inside, or it makes you look forwards and backwards and here all at the same time_ that__ when you know to hold onto it. And you hold onto it with every fiber of your being. Because it__ in the holding on of these chances and moments and concepts that life is lived. Every other kind of living is only in vitro. I don__ care what psychologists say today about how the human mind works. Because one day they will reach this pinnacle and they will see what I see and they will look upon the old ways as primitive. As long and gone. We do not wish to have what we can__ have. We wish to burn in whatever flame we have stepped into.

It wasn__ as if she__ thought it through or anything, how what a person wanted wasn__ always what they needed, and what a person needed might be the last thing they could ever want.
