none of us really know what we’re doing?
Sometimes it’s searching for signs. Sometime it’s noticing what’s right in front of you. Sometimes the universe conspires.

All desire is a desire for being.”
We think we want things, but every desire points to a way of life, a kind of person we long to become. Objects seduce us not with their utility but with their promise of transcendence—status, attention, belonging.
