As a previous worldly man, who is now happily married and just had a daughter... For me, I finally completed my dream.. A vagabond motorcycle adventure. The year was 2020, I was 27. I spent 10 days riding through 7 states on my dream bike. I was able to enjoy many national landmarks during my 2000+ mile ride, fueled on alcohol and coffee. I brought my hammock with me and would pitch it on the side of the road for the night.. I made a lot of connections and even got a couple of nice beds to share for the night from women I'd met at a bar. Needless to say, I was living my dream. Or what I thought was my dream at the time... I had lots of reflection time, as you would when you're riding solo across the Mid-west.. And realized I still wasn't happy... Toward the end of the trip, I enjoyed a very deep conversation with an older lady on the ferry, we talked about relationships, spirituality, god, and life for over 3hrs... She was a very interesting woman, and that stuck with me... At the end of the trip, I knew who I was.. For the first time in my life. No Bull, no trying to impress.. I tasted all the world had to offer, and I was a little disappointed, but okay with it. 2 months later, I met my future wife! My honesty and authenticity attracted her, and her wholesomeness attracted me. Since I was no longer looking for "Excitement, risk, and danger"... (That being said we still went on many adventures together!) Anyhow, she moved in 6 months later, I proposed 6 months after that, 6 months from then we got married, 6 months we left to start our 6month travel adventure.... and at the end of those 6 months we found out we were expecting .. Now she's born, we are buying our first house which was 6 months since our last move...
I am so much happier and more fulfilled than I ever have been in my life, I'm 1 year sober too. I don't miss my old life at all because it wasn't even a life... Just running from one thing to another... Consistency is beautiful.
PS. Wordly things don't come remotely close to loving a wife, having a kid, and the love of god... That's the truth, wish I figured this out sooner!!!

To answer your question.. A sinful lifestyle sucks, when you realize that you will transcend and work towards a higher biblical life naturally.
