It is hardly surprising that today,in our so called highly advanced society,dominated by greed,hatred,suspicion and fear,an increasing number of people should feel loneliness,frustration,jealousy and enmity,and are unable to see any meaning in life.
Youths today demonstrate this inability to see meaning in life in various ways, which range from delinquency to drug addiction.
While the fulfillment of our needs and desires,which no harm to others,does bring some form of happiness?
desire and aversion operate together: at one moment it is aversion,at another moment it is desire.
all our desire is like that? whats your opinion about this desire. Let me know..thanks God Bless Us!

mmmmm...thanks for the add. yeah youre right too. Certain things give us pleasure, so we try to hold on and increase our quantity. Some other things bring displeasure,so we try to avoid or remove them.
Unless we can have mastery and control over the forces of desire and aversion :)they will drive us from one UnHappy experience to another. have a great day!
