”Throw moderation to the winds, and the greatest pleasures bring the greatest pains.” Democritus

Temperance is not an enemy, but a friend to pleasure. Temperance does not despise pleasure it delights in it as a precious gift and does what is needed to insure it is not ruined by overindulgence. Remember listening to that favorite song as a teen over and over until you got sick of it. If you enjoy something, protect it with moderation. Let your love of life guide your enjoyment of pleasure and pleasure will always bring you pleasure.

“Eat just enough honey, too much of it will make you sick.” Prov.25 “Conversations Within” ts 5/1/2018
