Do I miss the hunt? I suppose. It could be quite exhillerating from time to time.
Do I miss the catch and the kill? Absolutelty not.
Staying with the hunting metaphore, imagine you hunt deer. You've gotten some pretty good deer over the eyars, but you've always been looking for mthe one deer that'll make you feel like you're a true hunter, a worthy prey. Say you find that worthy prey and it turns out a thousand times better than you had ever hoped. It is the perfect hunt and a worthy adversary. You finally catch the prey and it is everything.
After making that catrch, every other catch would pale in comparison.
It's like eating canned tuna all your life, then having a delicious fish dinner from the best resturant in the world. Every can of tuna you've had in the past, even though you may have liked it at the time, becomes gross and unimportant compared to what you really love. Thus is love.
Darn, now I'm hungry again. I'm gonna go have some fish.
