Love, Sex, and Passion

I am a hedonist. According to one dictionary, the definition is as follows; The ethical doctrine holding that only what is pleasant or has pleasant consequences is intrinsically good. This does not necessarily refer to acts of physical pleasures, although that is the general consensus in open conversation. I also believe that we have taken this human form for a purpose, and that is to experience the ultimate when it comes to the senses.

As we all know there are the five basic senses, these being; touch, taste, smell, hearing, and seeing. I, on the other hand believe there is a sixth sense, and that is the intuitive aspect of the mind. Passion, the object of such a fondness or desire. What draws us to something or someone when we have yet to experience them/it? The intuitive magnetic draw becomes passion when we experience through our senses that which gives us pleasure. Intuition comes from birth, it’s something that can be developed and enhanced with practice, we all have that capability. Unfortunately that sixth sense is a lot of times not used, and it is the greatest of our senses. We can look at a person and desire them for a number of reasons whether, spiritually, physically, or mentally. There have been many people that have come into my life and although I admired them and they stimulated me more than mentally, they just were not at the level of a sexual partner. The inverse also holds true. There have been many women I have wanted to just fuck, that is until I had a conversation with them, then all of a sudden, whoa, ’sorry but I have to go clean the lint out of my dryer’. I recall a line from an Eddie Murphy movie several years ago; Arsinio Hall asked him why did he want to travel abroad when he could have any woman he wanted out of his kingdom. His reply was priceless; ‘Because I want a woman that can stimulate my intellect as well as my loins’. Intellect, the sixth sense, the mind, the most erotic organ we have in our body.

Love is the manifestation of passion and passion has many facets. There is the physical, which can refer to anything from food, work, play, or sex. There is the spiritual, which can feed the soul, art, or even intangible things. Then there is the mind, and the passion that is created here is unequaled to any other. I suppose eventually we will be able to have a mind melt, where we can achieve great pleasure from transcendental thoughts. There is more to sex than just fucking, although nothing beats a good spontaneous fuck.

So I say unto thee my fellow mortals, love thy self for the capabilities that you have, and don’t judge others by your own limitations. Be passionate about it all, regardless of the outcome. Finally, remember that this is all there is and what you make of it is what determines your state of being.
