And yet, despite the multiplicity of times we've done it, it is still a funny, exultant, true thing - where for a short time you turn into something else and fly; where you stop fretting and wanting, and are simply alight with joy - and all while never venturing beyond the walls of your room. And I would put our continued success down to one simple thing. At the end of every tumbling session, one of us will turn to the other and say, "Thank you very much. That was very pleasant. Very pleasant indeed. My dear, I am much obliged to you." Because at the end of the day, that is the hottest sex tip of all: gratitude. That you've found someone who wants to do that thing, with you, and no government has yet found a way to charge you VAT on it. You can set fire to the sky, and not be charged a penny. Sometimes, it's great being a human.Caitlin Moran
About This Quote
What is true greatness? The greatest gift of all is the gift of life itself. People often think that the gift of life is the gift of liberty, but this gift is an illusion. The gift of life is the gift of being able to grow and develop. The gift of life allows us to experience joy and pain, happiness and sorrow.
The gift of life allows us to live the beautiful moments that we otherwise might not be able to feel. When we are given the gift of life, we become human beings who can freely choose what path to take in life. Whenever you are faced with a choice in life, choose the path that makes you happy.
People often think that they are free, but freedom is something that can only be obtained after one has experienced suffering. Our greatest freedom comes from understanding how to let go no matter what situation we are in. This quote below applies to people who have been hurt or wronged by someone else, or someone who has hurt their feelings, or someone who has done something for which they felt very bad about themselves, but they felt too ashamed to talk about it with anybody else: "It's wonderful how much one can endure without any outward signs of suffering." -- George Bernard Shaw
