What will avoid disappointment?

What will make a good friend, a good partner, a good employee?

Or a good daughter.

And over time those filters become automatic.

So when someone finally asks you, what do you want?

There's a pause.

Not because nothing is there, but

But because your inner signal has gotten very quiet.

I actually don't think we lose our wants.

I think we lose the habit of listening for them.

And in that silence the mind often jumps in again, trying to figure it out, trying to think its way into clarity.

But what you're really looking for isn't a better answer, it's actually a clearer signal.

There's a question I've been sitting with lately, and it's surprisingly simple.

If nobody else had an opinion.

What would I want?

Not as a performance, not as a responsibility to others, and not as something to get right.

Just you.

In your own life without having to adjust for anyone else.

And I don't think this question always gives a clear answer right away.

Sometimes it doesn't.
