The power of Ratzon-desire.

David Hamelech said (Tehilim 145:16) "You open your Hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing."  This teaches us that what Hakadosh Baruch Hu provides is in accordance with our aspirations....If we examine our feelings honestly, we may uncover the unsettling fact that we do not really want it as much as we think or say we do.

from "It's All in Your Mind" by Sara Yosef   p.28

Do I really want to stay abstinent, or do I have some hidden agenda that is keeping me from being abstinent?
