Insight: Craving

 We are addicted to the condition of Craving.

On fulfillment of one, we create a new desire and craving for it.

Why?

Because, Craving creates a short term focus and direction, a brief sense of purpose for our life energies and passing spurts of joy and achievement.

Before bringing pleasure on its fulfillment, this brings a sense of clarity and strength in the journey of its pursuit. We feel sensations of power in this experience of single-mindedness.

We don't know what to do in its absence. We feel empty, lost or less worthy.

So we keep creating new desires and cravings. 

We lengthen and strengthen the desires and cravings to increase the level of pleasure and lengthen the experience of clarity and power.
