What is the key to happiness?

[Anonymous No.10839457]

To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women.

Accepting the universe as your lord and master. You are merely matter floating amongst the stars. Your temporary existence on this earth is a divine experience. Why waste it being miserable? Even pain and suffering can be enjoyed if you consider that they are merely parts of your beautiful journey.

Low expectations.
Not even joking, for a few days at work I did some stuff for my coworkers and expected nothing from it, it was so nice when they did little things for me in return (except one or two coworkers who did nothing in return, which didn’t matter because I expected nothing to begin with!)

yet people split into different teams (nation, football, politics) and fight each other instead of making their microenvironment autarkic. of course they do, because everybody thinks he's special and deserves some kind of special treatment. people nowadays need to learn about respect and modesty

Can’t disagree. Can’t envision this happening in our lifetime, but I can imagine a version of reality or a future where we build a less ego centric world to live in.

Take on a difficult task that will push you beyond where you are already and succeed in it. You will get this sense that “yes! that was worthwhile”. That’s paradise on earth. When you live in that place where things are worthwhile.

ive argued with a friend of mine about this topic. the main issue here is that we dont have to think about ideals or common ground on a global scale. every one of us can start in his neighborhood or family. talk about important topics with his friends, instead of getting drunk every weekend. all of us get separated, functional families are dying out. relationships, which can be most important anchor in people lives, get replaced with some matchmaking system on tinder.

of course it is hard work. people are stubborn and very lazy these days, but its still worth it. freedom means effort.

Freedom, that's why everybody is focussed on money. It stands for freedom

Unironically happiness and the whole point u are here is to love and worship God through the son Jesus Christ and his Holy spirit....anything else is unironically as wrong as thinking BCH is the real Bitcoin.

If you dont agree its ok. But you won't make it.

I think realistically we do start at the nuclear unit, but the problem is that morals and ideals, what’s “important” to discuss etc. are almost always subjective and thus as things ripple out they clash... which is exactly why you have all of these different groups to begin with. I don’t think we can realistically isolate ourselves to our ideals. That was the intention of most societies and you see what happens after some time there.

Most humans are by nature selfish. Unless you plan on eliminating everyone who is a net negative on our moral being, not much we can do except hope to evolve beyond that.

The bulk of people don't chase freedom they chase showing off shiny things and "status" with which they can be cunty to others.

most people dont even think for themselves. it's much more important to get some stupid likes on some social media than the main act of humanity itself.
people are not as diverse as you think, they just get played differently by different players. nobody wants war exept the rich.

you might want to read up on edwards bernays, the topic of cybernetics or money in general. also sociological might be very insightful.

at the end of the day i'm not very optimistic as well, but you can't blame the fear ridden population to be honest, or maybe you can i dont know.

I don't get how you can turn suffering and pain into something beautiful. I'm not talking like basic boredom depression I mean the real heavy shit that goes on. Tortures, rape, child sex trafficking, murders, wars for money, all that.

The Universe is a cold and meaningless place and we all want to feel like we have a meaning. Understanding the truth gives you the power to choose your own meaning.

wu wei (無爲)

The Sage is occupied with the unspoken
and acts without effort.

Teaching without verbosity,
producing without possessing,
creating without regard to result,
claiming nothing,
the Sage has nothing to lose.

Exercise everyday. Breath fresh air. Meditate. Stop wanting. Materialism makes you a slave to your posessions. The fun is in the journey, not the destination. Meet new people. Don't do too much drugs and alcohol they can fuck up your brain chemistry and make you upset for months. Learn to swim if you haven't yet. Travel the parts of the world you want to see.

Might as well make your goal awe or excitement, or some other temporary state like happiness.

Pursuit of happiness is a meme. Once you are happy there is a state transition to any number of additional states. It's not an end state.

unhappiness is not being ok with the way reality actually is. it's how humans evolved in order to survive this far. in the modern world that tends to fuck us up. so train your mind in the opposite direction via meditation, gratitude, forgiveness, and kindness towards yourself and others. learn to be ok with not being ok.
