Are we all interconnected?

When we hurt others, do we hurt ourselves?


Peace to you all.

How can you truly be happy if there is anyone who is not happy?

Many rich people seem very happy, but, are they?

You can also be poor and unhappy. Which would you rather be?

Then why do they sometimes end up destroying their lives.

Why does the sun rise in the morning? Are the stars just pin holes in the curtain of night? Who can say?

Are the rich any more likely to destroy their lives than the poor?

It all depends on the person. If they look for happiness outside of themselves, then regardless of the amount of things they have, they will fail.

It depends on the video. The ones from droughts and famine which upset people so much they part with money. They show many people looking beyond upset. They show despair.

Anyone would be in despair in those circumstances, not really talking about stuff like that along with people that live under dictatorships and cruel rule. Just average person from the 3rd world compared to an average person in say LA or Paris.

Those things are caused by poverty, the two cannot be unravelled. Think though, the man lives his life more fully when he knows he only has a short time to live. Does that make him more happy or just more likely to be trying to live his life?

Happiness is not connected to things like money. Happiness is something that we choose, when the conditions are right, to allow ourselves to feel. We could at any moment choose to be happy for no reason.

The conditions are more likely to be right if you are financially secure and not burdened by everyday worries.

Maybe, but you can't buy happiness.

I disagree. If you are looking for happiness outside of your self, then you will not fine it. Happiness is from inside of you.

I disagree. Happiness is the smile from one you love etc.

That is the condition that allows you to choose to be happy.

Which is outside myself. Being able to pay the bills and know they won't starve also makes me happy.
