What do you value most?

I was pleased to watch this analysis of “pleasure” on CBS Sunday Morning recently.

Not surprisingly, most of our top pleasures, especially when we’re young, are related to the survival of our species: sleep, sex and food.

More surprising is the fact that if we think something is worth more, we tend to enjoy it much more, unlike our dogs.  In other words, humans are much more open to the powerful persuasion of propaganda.  That explains most of our wars and also the billions of dollars spent on advertising.  Why do we respect our dogs so much? Because in some ways they are so much smarter than we are!

Some get enormous pleasure from spending money.  I am not one of them.  I have never based my life on gathering more money.  Buying more things leaves me feeling empty and alone.

I decided back in my late 40s, when my future was looking pretty grim, that the experience that meant the most to me was to experience honest, genuine, unconditional love for once in this life.  And no, it wasn’t about the sex.

It was about believing that genuine, selfless love does exist.  It was about valuing another person’s presence in my life more than myself.  It was about experiencing “LOVE” with a capital L.

I have found, what you focus on does grow.  Spending the time to first search inside for my highest life priority and then putting that energy out into the universe, brought me what I was seeking.

Talk about the supreme surprise!  After decades of finding only disappointment in love, I finally met someone who approached love the way I did, someone who valued loyalty and respect above all else, and someone who didn’t change their mind every so often and lose interest in loving me.

It’s a “through thick and thin” kind of thing with us now, and      that is exactly what I was looking for.
