wants

Maintain a persistent focus of what you want

It__ a funny thing, one day you__e living and the next day you__e not sometimes, whether you have plans or not. Wishes and wants get trumped by the reaper every time. I don__ even know if I would want a warning if it was my time. I think I__ rather be surprised.

In a society that prioritizes man__ health, a cleaner is more important than a lawyer.

Needs are imposed by nature. Wants are sold by society.

I wanted what we all want: everything. We want a mate who feels like family and a lover who is exotic, surprising. We want to be youthful adventurers and middle-aged mothers. We want intimacy and autonomy, safety and stimulation, reassurance and novelty, coziness and thrills. But we can__ have it all.

You will know those who love you, when you are in need.

The irony is that while God doesn__ need us but still wants us, we desperately need God but don__ really want Him most of the time.

To be happy without your wants is greatest contentment.

What we need is more books to read.

Sometimes, you don't get what you want the most... At other times, you're just lucky.

God doesn't hand you an easy life because you will grow in it. He hands you a dream with hurdles, obstacles, setbacks, battles and challenges because he knows the real you is at the finishing line.

Only you can know the difference between your wants and your needs, and your sacrifice of your life's time to both.

16. Christians should never consult astrologers, psychics, or those who practice witchcraft (see Isaiah 47:13-14). They are usually phonies who only pretend to have extrasensory powers. But in some cases, they are working in cooperation with Satan. Rather than tamper with this evil world, the one true God wants us to bring our needs, problems, and decisions to Him. He has promised to lead us into all truth (see John 8:32).

The only weapon of power, its only strategy against this defection, is to reinject the real and the referential everywhere, to persuade us of the reality of the social, of the gravity of the economy and the finalities of production.

Take your desires for reality!" can be understood as the ultimate slogan of power.

Maybe, it wasn't stuck in my mind. Maybe,just maybe, it was stuck in my heart for so long that it grew wings and wanted to fly, but didn't know how.

More often than not, people who are obsessed with their desires and feelings are generally unhappier in life vs. people that refocus their attention on service to others or a righteous cause. Have you ever heard someone say their life sucked because they fed the homeless? Made their children laugh? Or, bought a toy for a needy child at Christmas time?

I have all I need.
