I agree with the quote, “Every act you have ever performed since the day you were born was performed because you wanted something,” by Andrew Carnegie, because I believe everything you do in life, you do for a particular reason. Everyone does things, but no one does it just to do it. Every action always has a reason for doing it. For example, we speak for us to be heard, we go to school to learn or earn a degree, we walk places to reach a destination, and the list can go on and on. Whether we act on something in a good way or bad way there is still a reason for doing it. Some acts we perform in our life can really effect how we are seen by others in a good or bad way. Even from the day we were born we perform to get something. Like when babies cry, they want a bottle or food. When we are a little older we may kiss and touch our spouse for sexual desires. When we are hungry we get some food because we want to fulfill our stomach’s desire. We might not even think sometimes that the actions we perform are performed because we want something but whether we realize it or not we are performing because we want something. We may think that some of the acts we perform in life, when we want something, are in our conscious mind, but sometimes we can perform an act in life when we want something without even realizing we are doing it.
I agree with everything you said and expressed similar views in my own post. What I did not consider was doing things even though we do not know the desire or want we are fulfilling. Some actions we can not explain and I think this especially applies to those in love. Sometimes we still can not explain the reasons why we behaved the way we did or reacted in certain ways but we know it was for something we wanted even if we do not know what that something is. Its not necessarily a bad thing, what we want makes us who we are.
