I appreciate your breakdown of people as “worshipping beings.” I think that spirituality is a major pillar to the human psyche, but nowadays it’s confused for religiousness. I think we’re seeing a spiritual revival because in avoiding religion many people have neglected spirituality. And like you said, we don’t all believe in any god but we all pursue heaven or “home.”
Ahh Sherry, the synchronicity! I've been thinking so much about how DESIRE IS A ROADMAP.
An unfinished thought, but I especially like the line "Like how thirst alone proves that water exists" because it suggests an erotic-ness to the act of wanting. There's an edging taking place as I inch my way towards my desires and an "other" waiting for me on the other side—this other is not necessarily the object of my desire, but rather the person I become once I've achieved it. DESIRE AS AN EXOTIC EDGING/DANCE, I like the sound of that.

Very nice. That first paragraph is so good
