I find that my newfound ability to create something daily through my writing (poems specifically) gives me a sense of accomplishment I doubt I would even find from work.

So does literature make all other satisfactions seem like "breakfast", and take away the need for them?Originally Posted by Alexander III
I'm happy that no one here mentions " my children", or " my family"....
Also always funny to see people feel satisfation in life by getting attention from a woman, but well...
My personal satisfactions are when I write for my research project, when I read and when I publish.
Creativity, purpose, personal connection, love, something to look forward to and something(s) to be passionate about. (and heineken beers on Friday - today!)
I did not say 'attention from women' makes me happy - only because it's not popular to say so.....and only that reason.I'm happy that no one here mentions " my children", or " my family"....

First thing I thought?
My OCD compulsions! Haha it's a sadsad life, isn't it?
No, but really: hoovering (alright, but only that one's part of the OCD!), the smell of certain books, walking through deep puddles in wellington boots and the feeling that you are absolutely doing the right thing.

No one has said reading! On a literature forum!
I am illiterate.
A job well done.
Randomly looking through Youtube videos and finding something like this.

Pontificating about things - people at parties LOVE IT!
