Meaning Or Pleasure
40 Answers
What gives your life more 'juice'?
Been reading some philosophical type stuff recently and just doing a straw survey here.
What gives your life its energy? Is it pursuing a hedonistic type of existence or is it seeking out a more meaningful lifestyle?
Does it change as you get older?
I know that when I was younger, pleasure was everything (sex, drink/drugs experiences etc) Now I'm older, having some kind of meaning to the things I do seems so much more important.
Thanks.

A decent occupational pension, a decent State Pension, no mortgage (paid off) - I can afford a few luxuries, and there is no pressure on my time. Leisurely breakfast, top up the bird feeders, walk the dog, run the vacuum over (orders from OH), do a bit of gardening, gossip with the neighbours. Nirvana!
