Sober Hedonism Principle 4: Enjoy a little a lot

“Now this part I don’t understand The New Boss said. He quoted my handout. “The sober hedonist relishes eating a single hot dog.  The glutton eats too many hot dogs with relish.”

“Too much of anything isn’t good,” I answered. “Enjoy a little a lot, or you will enjoy a lot less.”

“That makes even less sense.”

“If you eat one hot dog, and relish every bite, you will enjoy it. That’s a little bit enjoyed a lot.  If you have five hot dogs and wash them down with a six pack, you’ll probably get sick and not enjoy them at all in the end. That’s enjoying a lot, a lot less.”

“I like hamburgers,” The New Boss said. I just smiled.

Today I will enjoy a little a lot.
