    Have you found it

    Is it even possible?

    Maybe not perfect, but tolerable

    How do you measure that when the world is apparently filled with cunts, brain dead cunts who don't understand simple things like... STOP MAKING NOISE!

    When and how to not make noise, for idiots.

    Why are people so fucking intollerable, noise pollution, light pollution.

    Discuss the above the above the above

    It's not possible

    Once you get what you want you just want more or something else.

    At 45, I could actually retire now, especially if I were to retire to some cheap ass 2nd world country. But I dont becuase Is just go nuts.

    And seen personally too many cases now, of guys that retire, then are dead two years later.

    How about an ideal life? I mean, what's perfect? Isn't it an individual thing?
    I was married for a long time, once the kids went, it was intolerable! Now, I have an ideal life for me!
    I live alone, I eat, sleep, travel, visit and have visitors when I want, it's my life, my way! And it's ideal for me! Perhaps not perfect! But I love my life!

    Dude get out of my head.

    A) i was thinking about the perfect life earlier

    And b) 75% of my unhappiness comes from noise. Also, a hypersensitivity to noise is now considered a neurological disorder, which I tell people when i'm about to climb through the walls because someome is breathing too loud, but no one believes me.

    Anyways. I know exact y wha t my perfect life would be. I would be a professional writer with the freedom to work and write from anywhere so i could spend most of my time traveling.

    I actually can relate with the noise actually. Do you suffer from tinnitus? Anyway, sometimes, and if it's I who am making the noise then it's fine, but sometimes... if someone is making noise, especially kitchen banging and clanging, then I will almost lose my shit over it. It becomes so ear piercing to me, I need to get out, like you say, bang down a wall! And my mood is instantly changed from that moment.
    I went to a OH&S course one day and it was called "industrial deafness" and had slight-severe effects on people, emotions and moods were all common. I also suffer from tinnitus. So my ears ping and ring 24/7. I wish I could go back and look after them a LOT better.

    I believe I've got a good life, but it is far from perfect which in a way, I feel guilty for because I know compared to a lot, the way I live would be beneficial and desirable for almost all, yet no I am not satisfied. I am not sure I will ever be satisfied in life, I will always yearn for this "experience", life experience.. more places to travel, more people to connect with, more fun.. And I sit here with a sore body from a jog with the dog and I already feel those hands of time tugging at my life.. and I need more and more fun! More experiences. I'm selfish enough to deny myself a family for the sake of my own self longing for more life..

    But I don't know about the perfect life. There is too much shit going on in the world for life to be perfect.

    I Don't Believe There Is Such A Thing As A "Perfect Life" No Matter How Good Our Life Is There Are Always "Hiccups".

    My Life Is Certainly Not Perfect But I Will Say I Am Living A Very "Good Life".

    After All The Courtroom Drama Connected With The Sale Of The Family..(since 1852) Property And My Purchase Of

    This House And 5 Acres, I Can Describe My Life As Being Settled....Secure....Experiencing Good Health...And Peaceful.

    Iv'e Worked Bloody Hard All My Life As Shown When My Doctor Said Both My Shoulders Were Almost Totally Worn Out.

    Yes........Life Is Very Good For Me And I Hope I Can Live For A Few More Years And Really...Really....Enjoy It..... :)



    Cheers Glen.

    By complying, or out of necessity.

    Probably from masturbation though, not work, the right shoulder a lot worse off than the left?

    I don't find it too hard to be happy. I was miserable as a kid due to a bunch of things...being an adult has let me concentrate on the things I think are important in life. Yeah, people are a pain in the ass sometimes but my contentment doesn't depend on them anyway. Nothing is 'perfect' and my life is no exception. However I often remind myself that, to many people living on the Earth, I am a wealthy person and I have tons of opportunity to change my life anytime I want. [​IMG]

    Found the perfect life, then lost it, only to find it again.


    By shifting the focus from them to yourself.


    Even hiccups are perfect. Cheers. :)

    I guess there no point in the pursuit to perfection if perfection is easily accomplished, but there are things you can do to make life more simpler.

    It took a few hiccups to light a fire under my ass to make changes for the better. Certain negative situations have helped bring to the surface things about myself that i was unaware of. And probably would've never noticed if things were just "peachy" all the time.

    The more you have, the more you want or the more seems necessary to obtain perfection.

    The biggest thing you can obtain is relative freedom from financial disaster -- having all of your most basic needs met. Not worrying where your next meal, mortgage payment, or cash for your heat/electric bill will come from. Once you are free from that extreme stress, the rest is up to you.

    I really think that is a cop out. We aren't serfs tied to the land, and we aren't impoverished citizens of third world countries mired in poverty.

    We have more freedom than at any point in history, and it's sad so many people piss it away.
