IБЂ™m going to adopt the Sensible Weekly Time Allocation for myself. Let me share the handbookБЂ™s wisdom once again:
Flocker succeeds in allowing a reader to immerse herself in the difficulties our culture imposes on a hedonistic lifestyle. For example, a hedonist is not stick-thin. A hedonist enjoys feminine curves and softness. Did you know that most countries have paid vacation days required by law? The United States doesnБЂ™t, hence the reason for all of the stressed out non-hedonists around all of us. LetБЂ™s lighten up, already!
To the rigidly organized mind, the idea of getting lost is a distinctly unpleasant one and may be fraught with stress. To the happy hedonist, getting lost is an opportunity for adventure and discovery. This is particularly true when shopping, searching for love or when on vacation. To wander freely is to live in a natural state БЂ¦
The handbookБЂ™s tone is light and youБЂ™ll find yourself laughing aloud at some of the historical examples of hedonists, margin quotes, and even displayed graphics. A favorite section of mine features the БЂњjoy of getting lost,БЂ« of which it espouses this wisdom:
This second book from the author of the bestselling The Metrosexual Guide to Style is a quick, fundamentally fun read. Be prepared for lists and lists of interesting factoids about hedonism through the ages. Redefining hedonism and pointing out how Americans both define and decline it is one of the great aspects of this slimmer volume. With chapters entitled БЂњFollow Your BlissБЂ« and БЂњIndulge Thyself,БЂ« itБЂ™s easy to see in which direction this author leans БЂ" towards the full realization of hedonism in our lives.
