Restless Golf in Las Vegas Splendor
One of the most difficult things for golfers in a city like this is the level of distraction. It’s really peculiarly high. For some people, the idea of a game of golf is a nice way to get away from it all, but in the city that is already everything people like to get away to, it becomes interestingly tricky. Most avid golfers will find a way to enjoy having too much fun, and eventually get into the particular charms that Las Vegas golf holds.
Not to take away from any of the real joy in a great game in this city. But it is an interesting phenomenon. It is one of the great peculiarities of contemporary times where people do find it difficult to enjoy their moments. Taking time off is often plagued with guilt, or an uneasiness and restlessness with not being productive enough. But there’s something to be said for an overload of fun, and that is exactly what Las Vegas offers. With too much, and all at once, most of the resistance to enjoying a perfect moment goes away, and people find themselves caught up in the motion of the city in spite of themselves. It is a very good thing to see when it happens to one’s friends, but even better when it happens to oneself.
