I've spent way too much time thinking about how to sate desire and I've come to the conclusion that you simply cannot satisfy most desires by feeding them. You can see this food, money, sex, drugs, travel, etc... the more you feed a desire the stronger it gets. You may satisfy it temporally but eventually it comes back. Eventually you have to learn how to temper and control your passions otherwise they'll eventually come to control you. And happiness comes from being in control not by being controlled.
