Day 1: Guilty Pleasure
In the past, I’ve always referred to my 80’s music/lifestyle obsession as my guilty pleasure, but now it’s just something that’s a part of me; there’s no guilt involved at all. What exactly is a ‘guilty pleasure?’
I mean, it’s obviously something that one enjoys while feeling guilt for it. Clearly. But we shouldn’t feel guilt for anything we do. If you enjoy it, then there’s no reason to feel guilty about it. Who cares what someone else thinks? After all, that’s where the flood of guilt comes from—the judgment of someone else. So if you like to play Pokemon, listen to Britney Spears in the shower, indulge in some seriously fattening foods, and are obsessed with the Swedish blondes from Abba, then more power to you. Lose the guilt. Keep the pleasure.
