The rare moments when you vie for that one kind of dilemma that lurches under lots of cosy blankets of the usual worrisome vexing dilemmas – you could call it a sweetener to your coffee – something that you wouldn’t hesitate to take because you know it isn’t the ‘bad sugar’. Dilemma is usually the bad sugar you wouldn’t want. Pleasurable dilemma, *pause*, is the sweetener that has zero calories (I always wondered how you say ‘One Calorie’ (without an ‘s’) and ‘Zero CalorieS’ (with an ‘s’) even though zero < one. Nevertheless.)
So, this comes up at several times in life. Think of it – you go to a Cinnabon or a Barista and look at a Chocolate Mousse on the third shelf and a Butterscotch Pastry on the second shelf and love both equally and they cost the same! Ha! Pleasurable Dilemma, eh? This is the base level that pleasurable dilemma slithers into. At other times, it’s rather funny. Like when you have to choose between one really good movie and a really bad one only because you have a free ticket with you; assuming that you wouldn’t waste your own money on a bad movie. But now that you have a free ticket you might as well watch one for future reference or something.. Well, but, you also have a good movie on another hand..
So, you’re happy that you have something, but you have no idea what to do with it! It’s just one of the many manifestations of Pleasurable Dilemma. There are so many more!
It’s just too short a time that we have. So, it’s best to snap ourselves off of the dilemmas that we’ve chosen to be in and crave for those really warm pleasurable dilemmas that seek us to seek them.. It just takes two leaps to get two good things, one in each hand, toss them around, juggle ‘em a li’l and then say hey! It’s time I drop one for another!
That’s the end we want to see. A Happy Ending, like in everything else..
