Taught to Covet


I suffered from some indecision about the finality of things... 

Why do we always want passionately those things beyond our reach - when in fact, if segregated from the imagined possibilities or instituted barriers we learn, we no longer know if we want these things intrinsically, in and of themselves?

Once removed… independent of any action on my part, I find these misgivings vanquished and certainty is encapsulated in the loss.
