@markx15,
If you asked 10 diferent people you would recieve 10 diferent answears, but I'll give you mine. To learn and to progress, to create and to recreate, to live and to stop living that to me is happiness.

@markx15,
What you state sounds like Happiness = Self Actualization
(Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs)

I don't understand "To Live and To Stop Living".
I think I would prefer to live forever.

Is that a personal attack? Comment about Darwin?

Dying tomorrow or in 100 years is all the same to me.
Life is like running on a treadmill. A lot of exertion but you don't go anywhere.
In other words - I have transcended all the delusions that we create to give our existence meaning.

Then why are you here? Wouldn't it be prudent to take yourself out of the misery?

In other words, your life is worthless?" High opinion of yourself. Is that why you think yourself a "New Messiah?"

I accept the fact that life is pointless. I have no expectations.
Since I have no expectations I can have no disappointments or frustrations.

I know that the world is full of selfish people.
I know that I have to take care of myself and not depend on anyone else.
I accept that in a short while I will be dead.

I do not need any delusions to give my life meaning.
Your in a place we call "Limbo."
You need no delusions yet you are here asking about delusions. Hipocritical to say the least.

Just something i was thinking about....

Life and reality what are they?

Reality is how we are living, which today is plagued with violence and prejudice.

Life is simply life, there is no firm definition for it, but it is understood, untangibly yet concrete at the same time beautifull and dreafull.
Reality is a consequence of life, of being alive, and being such it is subject to the most basic rule of life. All things end. I believe this reality of hate and intolerance is past due. You think that a few people on a forum can't change the world? Try or else you'll never know. Give a good example, forgive, love, help out, make yourself heard. One day we will all die, its a fact no doubt about it, I mean is this life we live so great after all? I know our potential so do you, lets see what a few people can do, even if we don't change the world, at least we changed our world, and our reality, that is all we can as for.


nice post man I agree
