WotD: Guilty pleasure
Please don’t lie to yourself or me.
You have a guilty pleasure.
I know you do.
Remember that extra muffin you bought at the bakery yesterday?
Yes, you’re on a diet and should not have eaten it, but it was so good.
A guilty pleasure is something that you enjoy but also gives you a minor feeling of guilt.
I view it as a necessary evil to help us get through these hectic times.
Maybe you enjoy binge-watching on Netflix, but you know you should get up off the couch and go for a walk instead (especially after eating that extra muffin!).
The main point to remember is this: if you keep your guilty pleasure under wraps, nobody knows.
