Pleasure

Pleasure is a faculty which serves according to Nature as the guide of life.  As such, the term "pleasure" can refer to any individual experience of pleasure, but more importantly refers to any experience, whether mental or physical, which we find enjoyable.  This includes not only physical pleasures of good food and drink, dancing, music, and the like, but also includes reading, fine art, interacting with friends - in short any human activity which we find pleasurable.
