I remember a post where someone compared their .vimrc to a zen garden or something like that. They said that they loved visiting that file and make a few tweaks every now and then.
That post was right, it is surprisingly entertaining to find out that Vim has a motion/command/whatever that is useful (like go to matching curly brace) and go to your config file and make it even more convenient. Piece by piece it grows into something that makes you productive and you love it because it's yours and you made it.
