A thosand desire.

There is a Urdu poetry written by Ghalib few lines written on desire,

hazaaroN KHwahishaiN 'eisee ke har KHwahish pe dam nikle
bohot nikle mere armaaN lekin fir bhee kam nikle

There are thousand desires, which take a life time to realise. Many of them are fulfilled, but alas so few are fulfilled.

These lines are so true that we cannot stop desiring. And each unfulfilled desire left a dismal remembrance. It is very unusual if one has fulfilled all their desires in a life time. When ones desire gets fulfilled many new arise and it keeps increasing and get stuck in a never ending cycle. No one can say “I am free from desire” even a holy (realized person) one has a desire for company of GOD. But yes, a enlightened has one desire and an ordinary like you and me have thousand.
There is nothing wrong in desiring, but one must not attached to desire, because we cannot anticipate weather it is going to fulfil or not. Many would argue ,no anything which is conceivable, is achievable, true, but not always. Because as per a saying “One cannot get before the right time and more than ones fate.”I am not propounding the theory of fatalist; we should continue our struggle for the fulfilment of the desire. But if we fail to achieve our goal then we must try harder than before.

But we must intellectually classify which are the feasible, practical and right desire and should always choose morally governed course to fulfil it. There are so many desires which are eating out our world day by day. Few countries want to become superpower by accumulating life threatening weapons and few wants to remain rich by adopting wrong business practices.

In my opinion a desire which is blessed for you and your surrounding must be prayed from god and I believe it will be fulfilled in this life time or in this very next second.
