You Are Living With “BORROWED” Desires!
And here’s what you should do about it
I recently watched a spiritual podcast on YouTube where someone mentioned this concept of “borrowed” desires!
She went on to explain it as desires that we borrow from others, desires that are not our own.
And this felt like someone was speaking my heart out.
This idea did hit my mind once because I was observing my thoughts (something I often do) and I realized that there are a lot of things I end up wanting after talking to a friend or scrolling Instagram reels.
But I know that not a lot of people think about this because everyone is SO busy these days. Who has the time?
But if you are reading this, I want you to take out time and really ask yourself this question: What are my borrowed desires?
Or better, start with the desires that you feel are not borrowed.
I sat down with this question and here is what I could find:
- I enjoy listening to music and singing
- I enjoy listening to stories
- I enjoy being in nature
- I enjoy reading
- I enjoy writing
