it's about viewing your life as a work of art, as a unity/narrative that is beautiful in itself, having that stance makes anything apparently negative a necessary part of the whole, and it can be repeated eternally such that the beauty of the whole work wouldn't be lessened.

That viewing yourself in the larger narrative context is essential, all of the counter points totally fail to due that, it's like people just aren't rationally engaged w/ their life as a whole.

alisdair macintyre's ethics in the conflicts of modernity might help people understand that

just a side note for retards
nieztche did not think the world eternally repeated

it's about an attitude towards your own life.
I think the kvetching about it is because people do such stupid bullshit and waste so much fucking time the idea of their life having any narrative or aesthetic unity to them is totally impossible to imagine. Yes for all intents and purposes your attitude towards what you are doing should be that you are doing it eternally in a recurrent way because that-which-is your life can only be constituted and created and resolved in one manner.
On that note the shit about kids, yes if you are some child slave you probably will never even be capable of this attitude. If someone gives you brain damage you are retarded, it's tragic but we shouldn't approach life from the perspective of a retard and limit ourselves to what they are capable of.
