<< Why do I need to do anything? Through no effort of my own I am. I can feel sadness. Now. I am sad now, there is much sadness in the world. Would you like me to continue? It's not very pleasant. Sadness is just another side of joy. You have to understand that my words can mean different things. Ask yourself, what did linuxboy mean? If you think you've understood, then there is a high chance you haven't. Confusion necessitates humility.

How would sadness be another side of joy? I honestly don't understand that.
There is sadness. I am sad. And there is joy. Be happy, the world is a wonderful place. I am the eye, I look inside and what do I see? I see sadness, great sadness and grief. All is in pain and all want some way out. I look again and what do I see? I see joy, gladness and mirth. I hear the laughter of children. And this is happiness. And there is sadness in that. Someone is not doing that. And someone is. And so sadness is joy. Joy is you.

What does it mean to be happy at all? If it is a simple mental state, then careful control and exercise can accomplish that. But what good is it? If you mean true happiness, then what is that? Let's talk about this, maybe you can help me understand.

I guess it varies from persont to person. To me it would be no having to worry about stuff (like money or school) and not doing unpleasant things. Joy and happiness would be having a good job, watching good movies, reading good books and spending lots of time with people that I like
For another, joy and happiness is waking up in the world with no pain. For another, joy and happiness rests in the birth of a child. Yet for another, sitting down after 14 hours of labor is joy and happiness. I have done all these things. Joy and happiness are. You have so far told me what would it mean to experience joy or possibly some things that cause happiness. You have not yet told me what joy and happiness are. Perhaps you can elaborate, I really am having trouble
<< Why Bulgarian, of course. I'm just out of practice so I didn't respond back.

Now how in the world did you know that? Most people don't even know its a country.
🙂. There is much to learn in the world. Each new discovery brings new insight and knowledge. Each experience carries with it potential. I just happen to be equipped with some sort of brain that recalls random stuff like what language people speak... I just sit back and enjoy the ride and be thankful. There are plenty of people alot smarter than I who can figure out how I would know something like that.
Good discussion tonight. Thank you. 🙂
Cheers ! 🙂
