One-off experiences are literally what your life is made from
- dusted 5y agoOkay, if you want to apply that interpretation, then how would there be a difference (except the price) of buying a house and going to a concert? In my humble world, going to a concert is great but when the concert is over, you're left with nothing, it was a one-off purchase. If you buy a house, you'll have a place to live until you decide to sell it, after you bought it, it's yours, your experience continues,it's not a one-off, you'll repeatedly have that experience every single day you wake up in that house...
- mantas 5y agoDepends on one's life, but there're lots and lots of repeated experiences available. I go for a run on the same route every saturday. In summer I go for bicycle routes on same routes. Repeating such experiences opens up an entirely new layer. Observing the nature change over the yearly cycle as well as longer times changes is very different from just having one-off experiences when you can't compose them into a bigger picture.
