Come on, it is an infinite list!
The point being, think of all of your desires and what it would be like to fulfill all of them. That is the upside, though your desires do change pre and post liberation. The reality too is that desires per se don't mean as much on the one hand, because life is lived much more in moment to moment fulfillment vs the old way of mostly feeling dissatisfied. To go into much detail here is meaningless from me to you. You will experience it in you own, completely unique way. ------------------------ Yahoo!
