Or I watched someone on TV do something and I decided to do it too. Their experience of it looked amazing.
When I tried to make my experience match theirs I just didn't get it. I felt like I was putting on an act. Or My brother makes a lot of money and drives a nice car. I experience jealousy. I work hard to be like him but it never feels right. I feel sorry for the FHM generation! Like I said in my last post - keep it real - women are sticky, wobbly creatures with a delicate fragrance and the experience of them is far better than my concept of them. Receiving value (money) for something I perceive as valuable is far more satisfying than pursuing money for the sake of money - and yes I know it is an illusion - I am still working on that Cheers Mark Sent from an iPhone On 4 Sep 2010, at 20:30, fearlessinquirer <[email protected]> wrote: > I did something yesterday that was tremendously pleasurable or turned > out to be a painful experience.
