In this hour-long video I talk about how it is okay to pursue pleasures when we do it with moderation. I explain how pleasure-seeking can be the conduit to learn new things about our selves and to broaden our understanding of the world. I thus cover themes of longer-term commitment, of finding sustainable experiences, and of not being opportunistic or haphazard in your choices. Finally, most of this video show a first-person view of the mountain paths I am traversing on this nice, sunny day.
