What can be more satisfying then to be loved, remembered, respected and helped?

Question

This is asked by Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman (I added the "respect") and was wondering if any of you have an alternative answer.

Oh, or do you think "love" encompass all the others that preceed after it (remembrance, respect, help etc)

I meant "than" not "then" in the question :D Just to clear the confusion...

Answer 1

If you aren't those things then you are unsatisfied.

To be remembered, one must be absent, lost or dead. Until that takes place, you are to be very unsatisfied and even perhaps bring about your own death just to have that remembrance.

How could you know if you were loved as love is an internalized state that is experienced within an individual? We are an odd lot with a language that is used to confuse and confound.

Enjoy your dissatisfaction.

Answer 2

I would say the only thing more satisfying about being loved, remembered, respected, and helped is to love someone else, remember someone else, respect someone else, and help someone else. After all, is it not better to leave this world knowing that you did good deeds for someone else, than to know that someone did good deeds for you? Trying to get instead of give is just selfish. And the devil's advocate of that situation: doing good for others is going to make your image look better, too. :)

Answer 3

Every child needs to be loved, remembered and helped in order to grow up to make a positive contribution to humanity - not caring whether any one knows who did it or not.

Answer 4

hi,
To love without any expectation is the most satisfying experience a person can have.Only when you can love your own self,accept your own self in toto and forgive yourself that you can love others selflessly.
Love ,love,love....give, give , give,....care, care,care......without expectations of a return can be the most satisfying experience for a human being.

Answer 5

I dont know what he said about it, but I would say, It is to feel those feelings yourself for someone else! To Love ...etc..

Answer 6

All those are great and definetly needed..
the other thing I find satisfying is having a great orgasm.

Answer 7

to find peace within yourself, to know that all those things are gifts from others....to know even if you didn't have all those things that you are worthy

Answer 8

to do all these acts back.
