Is It Wrong to have Hopes & Desires?

Q: Dear Todd, I had a full laryngectomy & had my thyroid removed. It all happened really fast. I believe I can restore everything. I want to talk again! Is it wrong to want this?

Todd Answers: It is not wrong to want that. It is not even wrong to want it so badly that your happiness depends on it. However, that can create suffering. But, desire without attachment can help you achieve your goals without suffering. There’s nothing wrong with hope at all. There’s an old Hindi expression: the world was built on hope.
