There's no trick to it , it's just a simple trick
There's no trick to it , it's just a simple trick I'd like to be someone who decides to be nice , heroic , caring , loving and/or compassionate for the same reasons the nihilist decides to be a pessimist social Darwinist omnicidal maniac . I'd like my doctrine to be something along the lines of "Don't cling to pain . Don't expect happiness . Don't fear loss . Accept reality as it is . Enjoy the good . Endure the bad . Don't make a big deal out of anything . Be selfless and unconditionally kind and just , without ever expecting a reward . We're all going to end up as piles of dust , so why not be nice to each other and get those pleasant feelings ?" Instead of angsting all the time about "Life is short , we're all gonna die and you can't stop it forever , thus we might as well start killing each other right now" I'd like to think more like "Life is short , we're all gonna die and you can't stop it forever so why not make each others' lives worthwhile and enjoyable ? The only thing that matters is letting people know that you care about them , because whatever someone is , has , or can do doesn't mean a damned thing in the end ." I'd like to be someone who knows how cynical the world is and decides to stick to a particular value and make meaning out of it, because they know how utterly meaningless , pointless and unrewarding life is if you don't . I'd like to adhere to a utilitarian morality to work for happiness , maybe even border on self-made blue and orange morality . Putting first by putting employees first, immediately after prioritizing fiscal responsibilities and leveraging profitability towards exceeding by empowering our employees to put (and themselves) first, in a diverse and respectful environment of only those that come first, first. |

1972 - I was still in high school and the movie Man of La Mancha came out. There was a line that Don Quixote said "I come in a world of iron to make a world of gold" I've been working on that ever since. It's gotten easier with practice. Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

I would say the fact that you would like it, and can write about it so perfectly, means that you can do it. Go 40!
