Often associated with large mammals laying around muddy water to stay cool and avoid insects biting them, and as humans, we take it as a form of indulging in pleasure.
How is it that so many we encounter choose to wallow in misery? Each day presents issues and challenges, some minor and inconvenient – others severe. If we recognize it as such, we can vent for a moment to make ourselves feel better and then compose ourselves and move on to resolve the problem. Avoid the wallow, the choice of many.
Possibly it is a pleasure that some attain or avoids the bites, but it’s rarely -if ever – proactive or productive. Eventually, we wash the mud off. So why spend any time in the dirt at all?
