Do you have the desire to arrive to some text, or pictures, or something more than the word "desire" bewteen arrows ?
« But Aline, it is not because you have a desire that you have to fulfill it ! Desires they come and go, they are not stable. Desires are like buses. It is not because one comes by that you have to get on board. If you follow your desires, you will be all your life a slave, a slave to a constant changing thing, a chicken without a head ». Leire, Bilbao.
"When I smoke, I expand myself. Suddenly, my space is no longer confined to just my body and my little invisible breath, but it is enlarged by the cloud of smoke that emanates from me, elongated, wider, and taller: I am more of myself! Isn't it contradictory that in the very moment I damage my DNA, thus making myself 'less,' I also become 'more'?"
Aline, Montreuil
So now, when I feel the desire to smoke a cigarette, I don't try to fight the desire, I don't try to have a discussion with it.
I just say "hey, welcome ! I see you, you are here. I won't satisfy you just because you are here, but you can sit next to me if you want, or stay around, have a cup of tea." Aline, Toulouse
