desire

learning is desire like appetite
emptiness is like hunger to know
emptiness is not the problem, false information is
study is like eating

focus on self and dont sacrifice it
it';s not my job to meet others' needs
it's my job to meet my needs as long as it doesn't harm myself and others
others can also harm me, like addiction
it's sickness to meet others' needs to meet my needs or to meet my needs by meeting others' needs
it's sickness to sacrifice my needs to meet others needs
this result in addiction and overindulgance to compensate the suffering
the sickness is believing that I have to meet others needs and others have to meet my needs
the failure to do so will produce endless frustration that needs endless coping
