@Nelladell And most are looking in all the wrong places.

Nelladell · 80-89, F

@NoGamesTolerated Exactly.

@Nelladell The problem is you can't find happiness in what is seen.

Nelladell · 80-89, F

@karysma I'm with you.

@Nelladell maybe just less pain, more relief from the slings and arrows...

Nelladell · 80-89, F

@Elevatorpitches I think there are plenty of folks who would settle for just that.

Carissimi · F

I agree. To be free from pain and suffering, whether physically, mentally, or emotionally, would constitute happiness. @Elevatorpitches

Nelladell · 80-89, F

@Carissimi True. I am very thankful I aimed higher.

Elevatorpitches · F

@Carissimi i just meant to say it would be way enough nowadays, no more than that, people getmore of their needs met reliably and we make our own climb up the ladder of higher values, whatever they end up being

karysma · 31-35, F

@Nelladell Yet all the seeking for happiness in things we see is futile.

Carissimi · F

I don’t equate aiming higher with happiness, but then each to their own. You make it sound like those who suffer brought it on themselves. @Nelladell

Carissimi · F

@Elevatorpitches Like I said to Nell, I don’t equate values or aiming higher to happiness. My values are sound, in my opinion, but it has nothing to do with my happiness. I am not happy. I am grateful, but far from happy, and I consider myself a person of integrity.
