"The life of every individual, viewed as whole and in general, and when only its most significant features are emphasized, is really a tragedy, but gone through in detail it has the character of a comedy... Thus, as if fate wished to add mockery to the misery of our existence, our life must contain all the woes of tragedy, and yet we cannot even assert the dignity of tragic characters, but, in the broad detail of life, are inevitably the foolish characters of a comedy." -Schopenhauer. Do you think so?

Irony can be found everywhere if your eyes are open to it, but why do we feel the need to embrace it and laugh at it? Or do you feel it annoys you?

If so, why? If not, why not? What does "honorable" mean to you?

Abounding in a variety of rites, resulting in actions, fruition and rebirth as the means to enjoyment and power, being full of desire and litent on heaven.

Overcome by desire, they perform works in order to indulge in sensuous enjoyments. They undertake many rites strictly according to religious precepts and perform their religious duty with dexterity.

As for those who cling to sensuous enjoyment and power, with their wits carried away (by that flowery speech), their single-pointed mind does not remain fixed in contemplation.

But, O Arjuna, they do a wrong thing in that they long for heaven and forget God, who is the enjoyed of sacrifices. Even as one collects camphor and sets fire to it, or one cooks sweet dishes and mixes poison in them, or one kicks a jar full of nectar found by a stroke of luck, in the same way they lose merit through the motive of gain. Tell me, after making this great effort, why do they run after worldly pleasures? But what can one do?

I was wondering if you could explain to my why women make men feel good about themselves. How they put such joy and life into us. Why the sound of their voice makes our harts go a bit softer and pound harder. Why does a women’s touch mean so much? How does a woman's tender hand have so much power? Why is it hard to live with them and impossible to be with out them... Guys give your woman a hug. My love to all the women of all ages, colors and background in the world.

Consider that he was the one who wanted to be judged by the content of his character. I guess the larger question has to do with our acceptance of major character flaws in our heroes. We are extremely forgiving as a culture. Should we be less forgiving and demand more from our leaders? Don’t we deserve leaders who are inspiring, AND faithful to their families?
