          Well Coldwizard, why would you choose the ill you don't know over the ill you do?

          As for Lorizael, I tend to agree more with Solzhenitsyn. He says that happiness is something that cannot be taken away from a man. You can strip him of all his properties and possessions, yet he will still have his happiness.

            Crap, I thought this was going to be about the game, or at least the cereal. I got nothing, sorry bro.

              I tend to think that happiness is a thing found only in humans, and that all humans eventually die; thus, happiness is transient.

              I also think that Solzhenitsyn should probably define happiness before he goes and says lots of things about it. It's just a word, people. I don't understand why everyone gets all uppety about it.

                Cold.......happiness is a choice. You can choose to be happy or in a good mood or you can choose not to. Life is but a series of choices, choose happiness.

                  Might be better than the ill i do know, or at least an end to it.

                    I'm a survivor. That's my most basic reason for going on.

                    My other major motivation is curiosity - I always want to see what's around the next curve in the highway of life.

                      Sometimes choices are made for you and you don't get to be happy. So why worry about it at all? Why not find something that isn't entirely conditional?

                          Coldwizard:

                          What are your ills then?

                          Lorizael:

                          The point is that you make your own happiness, and that it is just as real as anything else you possess.

                            Don't worry -- you'll feel better about life after November 2004 when we have a new president.

                                It would take a rather long time to tell you, actually. But to be as quick about it as possible, I have dedicated my life to finding out just why this stinking place exists, and what I'm supposed to do about it. I kind of dismissed answers to these questions that didn't take the entire universe into consideration, so I have a long road ahead of me.

                                Ah, so the other things that I possess are real? And real things have value? Assumptions are bad.
