Wants are weird. Right now, I want another cup of coffee. You and I both know how that usually goes.

Eyebrow raise.

I also want a trip to Tahiti, a place I wasn’t so interested in, given how remote it is, and how difficult to reach, but now with “Below Deck” based there, and those incredible views and sunsets, I want to see it.

My odds are infinitely higher on the other cup of coffee. 

Wry eyebrow raise.

Sometimes our wants strike us out of nowhere, for things we hadn’t considered we wanted. The Roomba, or Roombie, as she is now known, for example. Until I borrowed her from my parents, I had no idea I couldn’t live without her.

And here we are.

Others are a low thrum we’ve heard most of our lives, all of our lives. We all have those, the wants we know we want but never quite manage. Some are so easily quenched.

Like that extra cup of coffee. Which is probably being made after I finish this post.

“Probably.” Right.

Today, give in to one of those wants, just for yourself, just because you can and sometimes you should. I’m about to do the same.

And it’s not Tahiti.
