Appetite.

Appetite is like a fire. Do not be fooled to feed the fire as much as the fire desires, for all of the earth would be consumed by flame. It is best that this projection of the mind not be fed, rather acknowledged, and ultimately ignored. Think to yourself about the interactions you have with a child. The child tells you of all of their desires, and exaggerates these desires to you. The child is consumed by appetite, yet you do not feed the child with everything they ask for. In the same way, manage your own appetite. Take on a perspective that is larger than the perspective you naturally hold, and use that perspective to channel the inner adult for your inner child. From this perspective you may enjoy an even temperament that will free you from the slavery of your appetite. Be wary to see your appetite as your needs; for the appetite will grow and consume you entirely.
