Desire isn't considered a positive thing in society. More often we talk about keeping it in check, being careful with it, making sure it doesn't get out of hand. Which is interesting, because in my experience desire is an important part of being human.
When you feel it, something in you is paying attention. Whether it's toward another person, an experience you can't stop thinking about or a version of your life that hasn't happened yet, desire is essentially your inner self underlining something and saying "This is important to me."
Your desires, sexual and otherwise, carry real information. They point toward your values, the things that make you feel most like yourself, the places where your edges are. Moving toward them tentatively tends to open something up.
I think we've been taught to treat desire as evidence of something lacking in us. Too needy, too much, too inconvenient. But what if it's actually evidence of depth? Of a person who knows, on some level, what they're here for?
Your desires are not the problem. Losing touch with them is.
