In the Desert

by Stephen Crane

In the desert I saw a creature, naked, bestial, Who, squatting upon the ground, Held his heart in his hands, And ate of it. I said, “Is it good, friend?” “It is bitter—bitter,” he answered; “But I like it Because it is bitter, And because it is my heart.”

"Can a person change? That is the central question of our lives. So much of our time is spent trying to change. Trying to become small or big. Trying to become powerful or peaceful. Trying to find a center or throw ourselves into the wild borderlands. So many books and videos and gurus, all trying to answer the question: can a person change? 

Which is funny, if you think about it. Because the main truth of our lives is that we do change. Obviously we are not the same person at two as we are at twenty two. Nor are we the same person at forty two, or ninety two. These changes happen to us.

So it was the wrong question, the one we were asking. Because we know that a person can change. The real question is: do we want to change? The issue is not method, but desire. In our hearts, we want everything to stay the same. That distance, from the change that is inevitable, and the stasis we desire, is the final tragedy of the human race."
