Erik Pevernagie
“When we stake a claim to the needs and wants of our life, we may easily fail to live up to the standards of others. Empathy and connectedness, however, might bridge the gap, by stirring our consciousness of the sensitive queries and by assessing the intricate framework of our surroundings with their countless, prickly nitty-gritties. ("Absence of Desire")”
Erik Pevernagie

“I want to give you affirmation. But if I don't give you enough, you should ask for it."
"Isn't asking for affirmation — I don't know — needy?"
He looked perplexed. "Isn't the point of something like this that the other person tries to meet your needs, and you try to meet theirs?"

Madeleine Gray
“I saw him as a circuit breaker; something that could put my big, unmeetable desires on pause. I had wanted to funnel all that wanting into him, into something that seemed manageable, immediate, tangible. I had hoped that falling in love would make all the disquiet go away.

And maybe it would have, for a while. But probably not forever.”
Madeleine Gray, Green Dot

“Rutted faced men such as me do not determine the suitability of life’s terrain. Our terracotta passageway simply unfolds before us awaiting the minor edits we compose in the mistaken notion that as mere actors we also serve as the almighty playwright. In actuality, faltering men stumbling along in life such as me serve at the mercy of our base desires. Caught in cacoethes – uncontrollable desire – we manically act to satisfy our wild and occasionally harmful urges. Working slavishly to mollify our wants reduces us to serving as the unwitting chroniclers of the jeremiad canvas painted with the frayed lisle of our shillyshallying élan vital.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“People will be with you until their need is fulfilled and then they'll find another person to fulfill their other desires. Don't trust or put too much hope on anyone, because it hurts.”

“Do not try to fullfil your desires first, try to fullfil your needs, one day your desires will be fulfilled also. But if you fullfil your desires than you'll not able to fulfill your needs....!!”

Brianne Moore
“Before we do anything, here's the first lesson in dessert making: don't stint on any of the good stuff. Fill it up with butter, and cream, and sugar, and fruit. All the things we want loads of but really shouldn't have. It should feel decadent."
That's her grandfather talking, of course: "Pudding is an indulgence; it should feel like it," he used to say. She could recall one day, in the kitchen of their house in London, when she was maybe nine or ten, helping her mother frost a birthday cake for one of her sisters (Meg, surely; Julia had given up cake, by that point). Elliott sat on a stool at the kitchen island, watching them, guiding Susan's technique: "Take off just enough of the frosting to give a smooth appearance, but don't scrape it all off. The whole point of cake is the frosting, isn't it? You don't want a bare cake."
"Julia would," Susan commented with a wry smile.
"Julia doesn't appreciate things like this" was Elliott's response.
"Now, now," Susan's mother gently remonstrated with a warning look at her father-in-law.
"Well, I worry about Julia," he said. "If you can't indulge in a little cake now and again, what sort of joy do you have in your life? Can you indulge in anything? And yes, cake is an indulgence. You don't need it, but you want it. It should feel celebratory and just a little delightfully naughty when you have it. It's the same with any dessert.”
Brianne Moore, All Stirred Up

“The horizon of needs and wants never actually gets closer; it's an illusion, a trick. We can always want more. We can always perceive some need.”

Donna Goddard
“Need is often dressed as love, but it is always self-concerned. Love can be dressed any old way it wants, but it will always be concerned with the good of the other.”
Donna Goddard, Nanima: Spiritual Fiction

“Something happened, nothing happened, something happened, something could not happen, something is going to happen, nothing is going to happen, but what is happening is healing you, even if someday you are not able to heal. Keep calm, go in front of the mirror and see yourself smiling, even if you shed tears, it will be fine, you will be healed in a moment by both these behaviors, this is what I want and those who are with me also want this, be careless. Celebrate it and put your life in that moment, then whenever you look back, that celebration, that laughter, that scene will refresh your today!! Take care of yourself and those who are with you, even if there is distance or closeness, just take care, even if they don't speak, even if they don't express, but your one thought will be enough, everything will be fine, so that's all I had to say. Be happy ♡”
Bhaskar Gautam

Lore Ferguson Wilbert
“I don't need a God who just exists; I need a God who cares, who intervenes, who shows up, who makes right, who enacts justice, who extends mercy.

I need a God who delivers.

I need a God who is not just there but a God who is here.

I need a God who doesn't just give me what I want when I want it but who shows up in the middle spaces - who reminds me of his nearness, goodness, faithfulness, and presence. And if I don't sense those aspects of God, today I need to keep asking for it and not just some temporary relief of my most pressing desires.”
Lore Ferguson Wilbert, Curious Faith
