      Yes, and basic wisdom is =/similar to common sense. So the guy really isn't saying much.

        Yes we know that....but some peope dont have common sense.

        And sometimes it good to be reminded why we thinks something is better then other things. And why we want so much but in the end never really appreciate it. We waste our whole lives trying to get somewhere to find happiness and yet even that passes. So we are never really happy. (Wait I kinda of said that already). Anywho you get the point

        I just posted that only cause it reminded me of what SagGirl was saying.

          I don't know I'm making it worse. I shall stop. I just posted that only cause it reminded me of what SagGirl was saying.

          No you're not making it worse. We're having a discussion. We don't have to agree.


          "...and why we want so much, but in the end never really appreciate it."

          But, how good does it feel when you're actually working towards something, and how much better do you feel when you get it. It's the best feeling.
          It doesn't mean that you should, be happy, content and stop wanting something else.

          After you get what you're after, you go after something else, something bigger, something better. You have to always keep wanting. The poeple who want nothing more, are the most boring annoying, and often suicidal people. So, I'd say, always want, it keeps you going.

          What other choice do you have? Being idle, is an early death, on Earth. How awfull would it be to want nothing more...

            I agree, wholeheartedly. However, a lot of people abuse that. Meaning they buy one car, but arnt satisfied and have to, haveeeee a better one. I dont think thats happiness at all, its just greed. However, as you stated when one works his butt off to get somewhere there is nothing wrong with working even harder to be at a better place. All power to you. And in the process if and when we feel happiness, then we know we have found something within us. We know there is happiness. And we know by doing such things we can find happiness.

            And I dissagree with this statement. "poeple who want nothing more, are the most boring annoying." We might think they are boring, but if they are happy, then why should we try to put that down. If that makes sense.

              You have a good point.

              I guess it depends on how you look at it, and varies from one situation to another.

              And I dissagree with this statement. "poeple who want nothing more, are the most boring annoying." We might think they are boring, but if they are happy, then why should we try to put that down. If that makes sense.
              This I can understand as well.

                  I'm sorry, I had forgotten about it.

                  So carry on...


                  How about this for a topic_

                  I made this thread a while back, but it didn't really get much response. I think the concept is interesting. Ignore the convo it has nothing to do with the initial point.
