The Pursuit of Pleasure: Epicurus' Hedonism
Imagine running on a treadmill. No matter how fast or long you run, you remain in the same spot.
This is a powerful metaphor for the "hedonic treadmill," a concept that suggests our pursuit of pleasure often leads us to a state of constant craving without lasting satisfaction.
Epicurus, the ancient Greek philosopher, advised us to seek simple pleasures, such as the company of friends or a satisfying meal, over the relentless chase of material wealth or status.
He believed that we could step off the treadmill and find more sustainable happiness by appreciating these small joys.
