Desire

So I'm explaining to the kid about desire -- she's all into this Buddhist path lately, as you know, and I'm telling her about all suffering arising from desire, and how Buddha teaches us that the way to stop suffering, thus, is not to seek to fill our desires, but to seek to cease desiring, and yar yar yar, and mr. delagar?

mr. delagar says, "Yes, well, that's only because Buddha never had an i-pod."

It's like a Zen koan, dude.
