Are desires bad?

Desire. It has an interesting, appealing sound. Why do I hesitate to use the word? Must be those 12 years of Catholic School!

The word "Desire" comes from French. That figures.

Synonyms: covet, crave, wish and want

Okay, "covet" is worse, from the Catholic School perspective...

Crave is like a need.

Wish is like a dream. One of those things you never truly expect to happen.

Want is an overused word. Everybody wants something. And yet no one knows what they want.
