There’s a part of me deep inside that wants what I want, when I want it, and will stop at no lengths to have it, should desire supersede restraint. It has taken me a long time to master restraint. It is not, nor will it ever be, one of my strengths. The best I can do is prevent the cultivation of desire, or to focus it in productive avenues. To be provoked feels exhilarating, terrifying and incredibly dangerous. I’m not sure I believe it’s a good thing. Sometimes in life, there are forces bigger than what people realize they can handle. Great power can both transform or destroy, sometimes simultaneously doing both. What’s light is not necessarily good, what’s dark is not necessarily bad. Does your curiosity supersede your judgment? Will my desire exceed my control?
