A Little Entertainment
... if you are of a negative mindset
It seems the last thing people can admit is that life sucks, so great is the investment in their failing project.
Consciousness always directs its attention to pain over pleasure.
For the person who can transcend the personal, a study of our existence is awe-inspiring - an intricate nightmare of grand design whose study gives unending pleasure.
The universe has no built-in fairness or justice. These are human concerns.
Everyone suffers; we know this. And yet, people are still envious of one another.
We are all equal in the sight of God; he spreads the misery out in equal measures.
We devote ourselves to maintaining our existence, and at the same time, we make efforts to forget it through alcohol, drugs, entertainment, and the like.
