What in your opinion are the two greatest pleasures people indulge in? I know how much people enjoy their food - so that can be one of them - what would you say is the other ?. Of course, our likes vary and people may find pleasure in a number of different things -- even in just looking at a huge pile of money.
So what would be your two? and would you be able to give up one for the other?

My two greatest pleasures in life are my two sons and seeing them succeed in whatever they do.

@HazySue I have gave up my favorite foods when I embarked on a life long healthy diet - but I still have them occasionally - like twice a year. I gave up, sugary stuff, french fries, any kind of meat - except fish , which I don't have too often either. I gave up milkshakes, icecream soft drinks, processed foods ( I used to love hot dogs), chocolates - except for the dark ones, jams and jellies etc. I have seen some benefits so far , for example - I can't remember what it feels like to have a cold - because I haven't had one in 13 years.

There are more than one pleasure for me. To watch sun rise or a sun set, to sit on a beach and let the water touch the feet and go, to view birds chirping in a forest and to read a book/novel in complete peace and calm.

@Kandae11 chirping of birds acts as an alarm for you.

@dpk262006 Not really, I usually awake at the same time every morning, but whenever I'm not too sure I hear the birds and realize - yes, it is time to get up.

My second pleasure is writing. It gives me immense pleasure. All my thoughts and feelings are transformed into beautiful lines that someone could read.
No, why should we give up one for the other. When both are important then we should be able to hold on to both.

@Blushandglow In life we are sometimes forced to make choices - for whatever reason, so what I am doing here is trying to find out which one of your two favorite things you would give up - if you had to.

@Kandae11 If that so then I would give up my writing, coz without food we cannot survive and if I am not alive how will I write.

@Kandae11 Oh, Ok. They are the greatest & nothing beats them. It'd be tempting to add friends also.

@Kandae11 so, is it safe to say that you now have a slim body built? or the regular size?

I'd say my indulgences are chocolate and books. I don't think I'd be able to give them up.

The two greatest pleasures. OK. My babies and all the yumny food for me. I live to eat. I eat everything I want and as much I want. Luckily for me I don't gain an ounce of extra fat. Have to thank my genes for that. And so it's an easy thing to make out that I would never give up my kids for all the food in the world as I love my babies more than anyone.

@Kandae11 I understand otherwise one will die without food. Lol
Got another topic now: what is your favourite food?
