Some spiritual traditions will try to sell you this idea:
That it’s noble to be satisfied with what you have.
That wanting more is ego, greed, or a lack of gratitude.

I call bullshit.

It is in the wanting—the ache, the stretch, the pull toward something greater—that our energy comes alive. That we activate our gifts, take the risk, speak the truth, and move.
