There is a purpose in pleasure; Pleasure coincides a use. There is a pleasure in giving ; it feels good to give and it is good to give. More so as a man and woman /husband and wife have been given the ability and have pleasure in creating a family; joining together to bring life into the world.

Pleasure without purpose is useless and that which is useless is hollow; what is hollow is empty what is empty is meaningless.

What has come from lives where pleasure and self was only sought ?

Meaningless acts and choices result in feeling of emptiness, disappointment, regret and sadness because they are hollow and are not meant to fullfill you.
