The previous post mentioned "simple pleasures". Here's a thought: ( which is probably not a unique thought )- All pleasures are fleeting. It's only for a short time. This leads to another thought: That addictive behavior is based upon pleasure seeking, and is addictive precisely because all pleasures are fleeting. Therefore, if it gives pleasure, then the desire is to have more and more and more until... you're addicted.
What a thought. Almost anybody can get addicted then to one thing or another. Especially something easily available and easy to partake in.
Can't really claim here to be a pleasure seeker. Perhaps not even close. But simple pleasures are the ones that are the most easy to partake in, and therefore could become addictive. But it may not be considered addictive. It may be considered just living normally. Addictions have a bad connotation.
This may seem to be an unusally dumb post. That too can become addictive. But I have to write something, or this blog will go into the blog graveyard. So I gotta think of something, and this is it.
