It's like being excited about the fact you're getting a PlayStation, and you can't wait to get the PlayStation and then after you finally received that PlayStation you enjoy it for a while and then it starts to collect dust and you only take it out on occasion.

Heaven is like being stuck in that room with the PlayStation not being able to shut it off.

damn that's deep!

so where is the middle ground in all of this? is it like buddhist philosophy that true joy and peace comes from letting go of desires and just being in the present moment?
