I was wondering if there were OR are any people in the world who have lived a life full of pleasure. Someone whose life went how they imagined it or hoped for. It could be anyone. For example, maybe Hugh Hefner has lived an entire life where the pro's dramatically outway the con's.
I just feel for me that if things are going well in life, either someone is suffering for it or suffering will come upon me to balance out the good. I like to think I'm wrong with my outlook and hope that someone out the has lived a CAREFREE lifestyle without any complications or negative disturbances. Heck I won't beat about the bush, I want to live a life that is good and pleasing to me without feeling guilty.
Does anybody feel me? Am I entitled to live how I want or do I have to "earn" my happiness through arduous and tedious toil?

QUOTE(esoterica @ Apr 19 2009, 09:46 AM) *

still rooted in the physical - pleasure is physical, so if the underlying mission is to generate memories for when you are not, then the more pleasure the better

withdrawal from the world is overrated, and ends up causing trouble

relaxing the physical control desire is the key

1. That wasn't my intention, but that's good to hear. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

2. I don't know; (almost) complete withdrawal seems idyllic, to me.

3. The desire for control?
