Our desires are inextricably linked to many factors, our biology, the state of information in our minds, and external factors.
I can also tell you one thing that our desires are not based on. What is it?
Free Will.
Why?
Because it quite simply does not exist. It is merely wishful thinking from men that consider themselves sovereign over their destinies. I can assure you we are not the sovereign one.
Men are but chaff in the wind and we follow the course of determinism as it has been set. There is no deviation and if you think so. Prove it.
