If you have a desire……………..

hello dpk, I don't have too much desires and wishes in life. I live a simple life and happy with it. The only desires and wishes that i haven't attained so far in this life is...to see my kids fulfilled their own dreams and wishes. Simple desires...like dress...shoes,those were my desires that sometimes i even deprived myself for having it(not necessarily). I can say that,i'm a shoes(high heeled) addict(hahaha)...i can resist to look for a new display on store(my favorite brand)everytime me and my kids go for malling. Have a good day always

Well,well,well...I am very mucha dreamer and do dream of amny things.......But I am a practical person too and know that not all our dreams can be fulfilled.....I ahve long since accepted this fact....So I try to fulfil my desires and even if I fail to,I do not spent much time lamenting on my loss..........Its just aprt of life and I accept it......This sort of logical thinking helpss to prevent heart breaks......ha..ha...

I think that those desires that are easy to fulfill should be fulfilled and that these desires would make us happy as well as having us feel accomplished. I have fulfilled desires before, and am happy when they are accomplished. My husband and I desire a home and car, we do not yet have these things but we are working towards them and once we do have these things we know that we'll be very happy to have them!

Hi deepak.. I agree with you.. best way to control desires is to fulfill them.. yes I feel satisfied when my desires are fulfilled but there is no end for new desires lol..

Hi, my dear.It's nice to see you are posting a sensible discussion here again.:-) Talking of desires, I believe all human beings have that or else we are not human enough.Desire for one is a driving force that makes us do or aspire something. Without it,our lives are meaningless.It is also a challenge to some especially when that desire doesn't conform to the norm of our society. I say I have so many desires, some are simple which I categorized as mere cravings i.e food. Those kind of desires are satiable and I often indulge on it without guilt.:-) However, there are desires that I can't and will never be able to satiate no matter how often I tried to fulfill them, the desire to loved and be loved, for example. I will always desire for more and give more.:-) Desire, too, in my own opinion is a strong word.It is not as simple as want or need. And, when you desire something, you know that it is not really so essily to achieve it,though, it may be feasible in the future. More often than not, we desire of something that we don't have that we need or want SO BADLY..Isn't it that this is the reason why a desire unfulfilled becomes an obsession? Well, I can give in or let go of my desires if and only if, it is the moral thing to do.:-) Have a wonderful desirable day, my dear.:-)

Hi deepak If my desires are affordable, immediately I will fulfill it or try to fulfill and if I know that it is not possible, I will try to suppress my desire or try for any other suitable alternative. I know that all our desires can't be fulfilled and within my reach whatever is possible, I will get it and what ever desires can not be fulfilled, I will simply accept what is given with content. This is my nature

I would feel satisfied if i have been able to fulfill those wishes and desires that i have had and have pursued. But here again it is provided that i pursue those which do not adversly affect or cause harm to others or me in ways. So the statement you read i would think in that perspective is subjective. We have to hold back and control in such situations. Thanks

It all depends on the desire. For me when I am granted a wish I do feel satisfied. But there are desires that are so good you want to fulfill them over and over again.When I play or sing a song real well a dream has come true but I hope to do it over again.

Wishes are like mushrooms of rainy season. They go on shooting up. If they are fulfilled, we feel happy, if not, we become morose. To avoid this, we have to enhance our maturity level and learn to analyse the facts of reality and practice to accept them as it is. It takes time to practice this status, but we must do that. All the wishes cannot be fulfulled for anyone, however much money is there, power is there and time is there. Disappointments are part of life and from childhood parents have to prepare the children for taking the failure or disappointment in a graceful way. Then depression will be less. I have faced many disappointments in life and my heart and mind has become seasoned. If I get it, then it is well and good, othewise may be it is not destained for me. I strongly feel that God knows better than me as to what is good and suitable for me. Did I bore you DPK? You are a bubbly type man, but the thoughts just flowed.

I do not try to control them i just accept the truth that i cannot fullfil all of my wishes and desires. Yes, there are times that we have wishes and desires that are easily fullfilled and that is great. it gives us a sense of satisfaction and the ones that are hard to fullfill, i just let them go and hope that someday i can fullfill them.

It is one of my lessons, I think, to learn not to be controlled by my desires but to let the Universe decide what is best for me. For me it is the most difficult of lessons because I have such a desire to control results to everything and as we all know one cannot always get what one wants; it is hard to remember that at times. What I attempt to do when I have a strong wish for something is to ask for it or for something better and then let it go. A lot of the time my wish has been fulfilled and on the odd occasion when it hasn’t something better has always comes along eventually. Patience is an important virtue.

Hi deepak, If we have no desires then there is no motivation and goal in life. Having desires and dreams is what makes life worth living. Whether we are able to fulfill all of our desires is quite another matter, but it keeps us going and looking forward to the future....I have felt that once you reach your goal it doesnt seem all that great, and then we move on to the next one, so lofe goes on.. I thgink we should do our best to desire and dream and also try to fulfil them.. All the best Deepak, have a great day

I'm thinking that if it is possible and within reason..yes..we should fulfill them. I think that desires that are worked towards are more fulfilling than those that we can just have when we want them. Those that we can fulfill with a moments notice often leave us wanting more.

Yes desire comes and I personally get satisfied if I achive that desire at a perticuler point of time. according to me we should not control our desire, but we should make targets and should time boundation to achive that! thats how i do on day to day basis. You know it is very easy to set the targets but achieve that need effort that is only going to come true if one is having deep desire to achieve it. Or another way to convert our desire to its achieveing stage is to wright it or communicate it to the people to whome you compare or do compitition.

hi dpk .. i have learned to control my "wants", i give lots of priority yo my needs now .. as an indian woman our needs n desires r fully hidden .. we r in the contol of our family, our soceity, our culture n religion ..

My personality is that i don't much of myself into my dreams.. because i believe in God's will and i know as human there's going to be a conflict about our personal desire to what the Lord has set for us. So i always look over what the lord has plan for me rather than my-own desire because i know it's for the best

regarding this saying,different people have different opinions. for me,i carry different method on different desires. regarding my desires on some kind of food,i always fulfil myself.once i eat the food i want to have,if i like to eat more,i will do,if i don't like to eat,i don't regret.anyway,i know how this food taste like. regardin my desires on clothing or accessories,suck a jacket,i always control my desires and let it go,if i really like this jacket,i will go to shoping another day,if i really like it,i will buy it.you know,this things often comes to me before:i like a suit of clothes at the first sight and i buy it quickly,when i back home,i may don't like it again at once.

Desire is considered by others as an achievement for themselves. The product of such is satisfaction or contentment. This arrived from different aspects of a person. His wants and needs in life to complete his being. For me, some of desires was fulfilled like education, family and peers. Some are not like having my own home which I reconsider for myself to be preparing for the future. My goals are line up already and I am in the process of planning and implementing my steps to achieve my desires.

It is impossible thing that life without desire..life is made to fulfill all the desires which was not furnished you at any time..may be prior life..

Hello everybody in mylot and hello dpk. As you have said desire is endless. Personally I try to fulfil my all desires that come to my way (only trying). When there is no objection from the Society and if I can afford I fulfil all my desires. The first apple is the tastiest as I go on eating the graving will be diminished thereafter I may not desire any more or desire little.
