Fantasy

 

Most of our fantasies dissolve when we wake, banished to the back of our mind, but sometimes we're sure if we try hard enough, we can live the dream. 

That fantasy is simple. Pleasure is good, and twice as much pleasure is better. 

That pain is bad, and no pain is better. 

But the reality is different. 

The reality is that pain is there to tell us something, and there's only so much pleasure we can take without getting a stomach ache. 

And maybe that's okay. 

Maybe some fantasies are only supposed to live in our dreams.
