Commenty wonts

To arden

Arden, I feel bad, not commenting on this before, egh, I did it in class one day but I guess I never published it.

I genuinely like reading your posts, getting your thoughts, it helps my perception on things to have a variety of peoples' views, and I enjoy yours in particular, so thanks for that.

As for your ideas and such, i enjoy the way you incorporate life stories, it makes this seem like a really cool existential journal/diary thing, making it really resonate, that these aren't just ideas and posts for the sake of a grade.

So, when you say you like to think that our lives are meaningful, what do you mean? To who? For whom?

Please keep up the beautiful work.

Omar-

"I believe human happiness cannot simply be defined in one sentence or by one person. What brings happiness varies from person to person."

I couldn't agree with you more, and that's only the first sentence. I also like how you take such a distinguished stance against simple acceptance of a situation that you shouldn't just try to make the best of a bad situation, you should seek other ways of dealing with it, never accepting it as just being a bad thing. But the thing is, If you accepted them and saw the happy side of things, do they continue to be bad things, or are they now good because you see them differently?
