Virtue and Desire

Virtue is a mental reaction that offers release

Desire is an emotion that requires action as a remedy

One is spiritual, the other materialistic

One emanates outward. The other inward

One gives, the other takes

Self-preservation is the greatest passion as is self-sacrifice

Life is more dramatic when you’re taunting death

Nature demands procreation
Desire demands we go to the heavens
Virtue demands we Love all things

I would be blind if not for the fig leaf
