| Posted: 18 Sep 2015 12:33 AM PDT No, I don't think so. All this really shows is that language is only a description of something, and the way you describe it can affect how people see it. The same thing can be described in different ways, with different effects. Also keep in mind that multiple descriptions might be valid, and different reasons for or against something are also often valid, and not everyone agrees on which one is the most important- and often there is no rule over which is more important, so it comes down to people's own personal opinion. To use an example, think of universal health care. Some people think it is a bad thing because it means they have to pay tax to fund healthcare, a lot of which goes to other people. Some people think it is a good thing because everyone is covered and if you ever do get sick, you will have access to healthcare. The thing is, both of those statements are entirely true. The issue is which is more important to an individual person. |

| Question: What is the key to a happy, fulfilling life? Posted: 17 Sep 2015 04:59 PM PDT Only you can decide what would really make your life happy and fulfilling. I am an old dude that has seen much. One of the best things in my life has been the continual improvement that I have been able to achieve. I have, get, and still need a lot of help. I used to be a very bad person. I am a better person now, and I know that I will be yet better in the future, whatever it may bring. I will contribute to our world. I am a full-on member. In my opinion, to have a better life, you have to set goals that are valuable, measurable, and achievable. The way to value these goals will depend on your personal life-long philosophy, which should and will, evolve as you grow as a person. For me it is to become a better human being and citizen of the world. Day by day. Year after year. My personal philosophy is to be the best world citizen I can be, try to influence others to live the same way, and contribute to society in any way that I can. This includes being informed and up-to-date on the issues. Not because I will be rewarded in the end. Not because some religion tells me that I must do so to avoid hell, but because it is the only thing that makes sense. I only really know myself and what I am like. But I do know a little about feelings and emotions. They are tied to our attitude. Choosing to be positive and having a grateful attitude is going to determine how you're going to live your life. I have been working on my personal mental attitude for many years and have gotten a good hold on it. I choose to have a positive mental attitude and I almost always feel happy. The greatest discovery of my generation is that we can alter our life simply by altering our attitude of mind. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That's the day we truly grow up. Attitudes are a secret power working twenty-four hours a day, for good or bad. It is of paramount importance that we know how to harness and control this great force. Our attitudes control our emotions. Our emotions control our lives. We control our attitudes. Enduring happiness is an attitude of mind, born of the simple determination to be happy under all outward circumstances. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes their way. Love and peace to you forever. |
