My desires are fulfilled from my true self.

Over the years my desires have definitely changed.  In the past, I wanted to make more money, better cars, bigger home and material possessions.  Now when I think of these things they are not as important.

Yes, of course I want to make more money.  However, the trade is that I give up truly living.

 I worked in the retail setting and worked hard.  No matter how much or how hard I worked, it was not good enough.  Politics ruled over hard work.  In my last six years I was so miserable that my health was affected.  The day I was demoted to make room for someone else was the best day of my life.  My desires changed.

I began to find the way back to my true self.  Things that I had not really done or experienced became important to me again.  I got divorced soon after purchasing a home and moved into my mothers house. I started reading.  Self help books, fiction, non-fiction and trade magazines.  My desires had come back. I wanted to learn, to grow and to do a few things on my list.

I was me again. Not what someone else wanted me to be.  My true self was alive. In my true self I found some old desires but also some new ones. There is no limit to what I can do.
