I have long held the opinion that I am ruled by six primary counter-intuitive desires.
I want to save the world.
I want to destroy the world.
I want to conquer the world.
I want to be consumed by the world.
I want to be included in the world.
I want to abandon the world.
These seem like conflicting and lonely fantasies. Though I may often be conflicted, I am not lonely.
And I realize at any given point in time, I could remove "the world" and replace it with something a bit less lonely.
Practically anything else as unattainable as the world.
