Deferred gratification


I usually feel guilty unless I'm in the process of deferring gratification. My husband, who is slightly warped, says he thinks deferring gratification is fun. He suggests that Purgatory (for people like us) will be a flood of unimaginable pleasure that we will be forced to enjoy as we are experiencing it. This prospect does not terrify him, because he doesn't believe in Purgatory.
