Science, Religion, Politics and in the pursuit of truth – HappyPsychotic

I noticed during my trips with Max that almost everyone here seems to help everyone else out without thinking twice about it…if you are struggling with a heavy bag, others offer to help, if you are filling your motorcycle tires with air at a gas station, people will help. It makes for such a friendly atmosphere, everyone doing favours for others, knowing that they will be helped if they ever need it.

Do One Thing Every Day that Makes You Happy
I believe that the simple and straightforward interpretation here is to take some time on a regular basis to do something enjoyable and this will help you have a happy life. Thinking about it like this, I would agree wholeheartedly, but there are some caveats…

If someone automatically assumes you are lying, is it because they are so used to lying themselves that they see lies everywhere? Can there be any other explanation?

I find this ad to be very annoying due to its misleading nature. But of course, it is not alone in the world of advertisement.

I’ve created 3 categories to differentiate the ways I see people try to sell things 1) Obvious 2) Diversionary and 3) Secretive/Accidental. I’ll list a few examples of each and we’ll decide what we like best.

If you are born rich, you aren’t content because you want to get out to “the real world” and be a regular person. If you are born poor, you constantly strive to be rich thinking that will bring contentment. If you are a genius you think that you over-analyze everything and are unable to simply be content like people with average intelligence. If you aren’t very bright, you believe that the cause of your discontent is because you just aren’t smart enough to do the right things. If you are destined to inherit your parents’ business (whatever it is), you don’t want it because it’s too boring (and probably too easy), while if your parents have nothing for you to inherit, that is also bothersome.
