There’s the thrill of a roller coaster… and there’s the thrill of hearing someone say, “I love you”—in an I see you kind of way.
There’s the thrill of buying the latest luxury item… and there’s the thrill of walking barefoot in the sand—free of desire.
There’s the thrill of sexual pleasure… and there’s the thrill of sitting in a rocking chair, next to a life partner, reflecting on the pleasures of having done life with them.
I hope you get to experience both in life.
And maybe even more so, I hope when the time is right, you’re able to move from the former in the above examples, to the latter.
Because it’s the latter… yes… it’s the latter, indeed… that holds a depth to the thrill that even the highest roller coaster drop could never compare.
