Pain and Pleasure

Pleasure and Pain
I've  been thinking about pain and pleasure because the two seem to have much in common yet we all risk what is inevitable painful for pleasure. To name a few examples: Love.food.alcohol.beauty.sex.drugs.money.     We risk or do things that can be harmful or dangerous just for that ever so fulfilling moment of happiness.
Love- isn’t it bizarre the moment we finally feel content with that last relationship and were ready to move on and be happy that person your ready to release decides come back into your life. When this happens I generally laugh and wonder why I cared so much. But why is it, the moment we stop feeling pain that person wants you back, how can they sense that you are content, and want to ruin you again. Why are we all so prone and programmed to be in pain? And why do we find pleasure in other peoples pain in some sick way? If you like someone and so does your friend why does it feel so great to be better win over your friend? (Or maybe that was just in high school). But either way - In the end aren’t we all just the same -not better- not worse- sadly enough to say were all inevitably going to be six feet under. If were living to die and yet dying to live where do you draw the line? How far will someone go? If you take a shot of alcohol and feel the burn of the and taste to feel the pleasure of being drunk. Or want to get high so you have to risk lung cancer or paranoia. Are those who indulge the most pleasure actually feel the most pain? People who are obsessed with beauty will get the most plastic surgery. Those who are obsessed with food will be obese. Those who must be the best will NEVER obtain there life goals; as Ben Folds would say “There’s Always Someone Cooler Than You.” Those who love to gamble for the pleasure and thrill will lose all there money... the list goes on and on but the question still remains ..Why is there so much pain?

Random thought:
Why are bugs so annoying? Why can’t bugs just be little bunny’s flying around? Then we would gladly let them sit with us during lunch.

I want one!!
