"The Sad Thing"
I don’t see how the fact that tomorrow I will shit out this beautiful borscht (served a few moments ago by a Ukrainian refugee posing as a Portuguese restaurateur) could possibly nullify my enjoyment right now.
In fact, the notion that “unless I can have it forever and ever I don’t WANT IT” strikes me as the grubbiest and most grasping materialism. It’s sheer Cartman.
“Catch and release” is not only acceptable, it’s what we’re all here to do. So fight on. Catch what you can, love the hell out of it while you have it - never jading (the secret is hidden here; search for "deplete") - and release blithely.
