Sure, you will be happy at that instant when you have such thoughts in your head... but then reality bites and you become unhappy again.
You need to discover the way to true and lasting happiness...

People are constantly living in a dreamlike world of their own construction.
You do not know when you are dreaming until you wake up.
That is not to say that people are totally delusional, illusionary and living in complete fantasy.
Just that people are not completely, as far as possible, living in reality.
To explain fully what I am talking about here and to elaborate everything that needs to be elaborated and discuss all the issues that need to be discussed... hahaha, I will end up writing a book...
So if you are satisfied with the answer, we will leave it as that but if you want to know more what I mean, then you have to start asking and we can start discussing.
(Those that just want to "win" and show others how smart they are by indulging in name calling and making baseless, illogical and invalid/bad arguments, please save it.... YOU WIN!)

Nah I am in a average living family. I am contented. Currently, I study in ITE i learn many life skills that not much places got. like financially planning, setting SMART goals,communciation skill,customer serivce and entrepenuship and career and development planning etc. which is good la i thinkOriginally posted by AndrewPKYap:no nid so polite one leh... makes me
If you learn the lesson well, you will not only be happy, you should be very successful in your relationships, career and money-wise. "Should be" and not definitely "will be" because you need a certain amount of "luck" and "opportunities" in life as well.
Like, if you are born in a rich family, then the chances are that you will be rich.
Like if you are born a very healthy person, and you meet with an accident that leaves you paraplegic...
Nevertheless, life gives each one of us opportunities and if we grab them and handle them well, we will do well in life.
The most important thing is to be able to see/know reality.
Some people live life according to beliefs and that is good (if only it is the right beliefs) but even then, it is not as good as living life IN REALITY.
so far so good? any questions?

belief is oneself one no all right/wrong?

don't really understand this statement,can explain Mr Andrew?
Thank you very much!
[/b][/quote]Learning life skills is good and essential. I am talking about something more fundamental.
I am taking about having a philosophy of life / an approach to life and living that will ensure that you remain happy your whole life.
For example, if you say... "It is important to learn and acquire skills" and that is more fundamental than "I must learn life skills and I am learning this and that."
If "It is important to learn and acquire skills" is "more" fundamental, than what is even more fundamental than "It is important to learn and acquire skills"?
This way, if you keep asking what is more fundamental.... you will arrive at THE WAY.... hahaha there is no THE WAY or you will arrive at a religion and end up with a bunch of beliefs....... hahaha you must not stop at religion and go even further...
Why are you contented? What about having dreams of making it big? Being contented is good and, having dreams of making it big is good... but aren't both ideas in conflict? How can you say that you are contented when you have dreams of making it big?
For example, if you say... "you mean to know the fact. like you are not so wealthly " ... and I will ask you, what is more fundamental than "you mean to know the fact. like you are not so wealthy "
I can suggest something more fundamental and that is, for example, "You must have the correct facts"... and what is more fundamental than "you must have the correct facts"?
If you keep on asking what is more fundamental to that which is more fundamental... where will you end up?
So why is it important to keep on asking... "what is even more fundamental"?
You keep on doing that and you will achieve what I suggested a couple of posts above made at 03 July 2007 · 01:11 PM

REALITY is just that REALITY... you cannot argue against REALITY but you can certainly argue against beliefs. There is no my REALITY and your REALITY.Originally posted by dreamykite:May i know what is your REALITY and other people belief?
