Very profound. To know that is to know the sense of fairness that is so missing from real life.

wants vs. deserves.... we teach our kids that the dry ground shall get the rain... but inevitably the 'I wants' get heard first.

[Elizabeth]

It is always a tug of war, of sorts, isn't it? Sometimes the universe rewards the one who merely wants instead of deserves. Unfair and unjust whether it be rain or love or any other little thing.

[Alicante lullaby]

short and meaningful.

[Nothing Personal]

An interesting analogy..It's could be a comparison of depravity vs necessary comfort..It is like first order need vs second order need..Can't explain but so befitting into a whole array of ideas.Wonderful

[Siddhartha]

Oh, yes. What we want we don't deserve and what we deserve we don't get. Greed, greed, greed, everywhere.

[piggy]

give to the most deserving
