Re: [mylifeismine] Re: Which One is a Good/Bad Day?

What is happiness or unhappiness. One man's treasure another man's junk. Seriously, cliches are so repetitive and so mundane. I never agree on the individual being in total control of their own reality as you put it. Yes external factors are paramount. We all just servants of the system that we create with cliches and elite philosophy. Being polite doesn't serve philosophy or it's purpose. Socrate was a loved hated person that was called upon when needed by the aristocrates. Philosophy has guidelines now, and question that have no purpose or use in our society. What are we really doing in this group? What would you say to the hundreds of People that have no control of the economy and can't afford to pay for anything? Is this reality bending with the wind, please feel free to disiderater me with that philosophy anytime. It does not serve any purpose. Philosophy was the birth of ideas and synopis of society direction. What is the direction of our society?

Well said! If you let no one take away your happiness,
then no one can! The mental/emotional/
physical/spiritual/ moral) "state" that you put
yourself into is really - up to YOU. No use blaming
external factors - although this is NOT the same as
denying their influence - rather it's "riding the
wind" i.e. in a strong wind, bamboo just waves and
bends with it.
