Title: Anyone feels totally appeased of his life desires?
Post by: Mondain on August 01, 2006, 03:47:22 PM
I've went out of town to check out a thing or two, and then at the end I've went in some enormous store where they sell tons of books, DVDs and CDs. As a teen, this is something that excited me terribly. But now... I found it pretty shocking to see that I desired absolutely nothing of what I saw.

Since then, I'm pondering the fact that there seems to be basically nothing left to satisfy within my being no matter how hard I long for desires. Anyone feels similar?

I'm not tempted by any exorbitantly-priced good that I can't afford, I don't have some big psychological dilemma left to answer, or to prove myself to anybody... the future doesn't really seem like a far opportunity full of golden occasions to fullfill... just some boring duty to get a degree, a well-paid job and bear with a couple decades of work...

At the very worst, I'd long for a girl at my side to have the occasion to be a sweet guy, or to be confied a position of authority allowing me to change things and make good around me... but there seems to be nothing else that's particularly attractive in the world.

Everyone cries inside because eventually in their lives they want their neighbor's car or gain some immense power, or travel around the world and accomplish something extremely significant that'd give them notoriety or whatever, but these utopic desires make people feel depressed beyond belief. The true need that never seems to get dull and that's the most important to satisfy beyond all others IMO, is curiosity.

There are times when life will suck beyond any imaginable belief.

There are times when life will astound you with amazing fortune.

There are long stretches of oscillating average existence in between.

You have two choices.

Maintain your self-centered pride and take the risks necessary to validate it.

-or-

Eject your self-centered pride and have the courage to accept, if not appreciate, the life you lead and to take no shit from anyone else for it.

Either way, you win. Accept that with some small modicum of self-knowledge comes the loss of innocent distraction, and thus you'll never have true ecstasy or misery. Envy the joy of the foolish, but know that they also fall further than you. (Also understand that you won't know a fool until you've been one, to put a pretentious quasi-Eastern slant on it.)

You only lose when you insist on pride but lack the courage to justify it, or when you have no pride and take stupid risks because of peer pressure.

The bolded part is what I read. The italicized is where you lost me.

To the bolded question, congratulations. You got less shallow. Still, I think it's healthy to force a sense of shallowness, to force oneself to want something to buy so they may continue to pursue a sense of self-purpose. It's like a circle of feelings, you want something you don't have but feel you deserve, then you work for it, purchase it, feel like you earned it thus increasing a sense of pride. Self esteem increases and you believe as a  better person you deserve more in your life, rinse and repeat. And before you know it, you're tired of the superficial, tangible things and aim for higher goals like raising a family. But it's pretty much the same process.

Usually when that circle breaks people resort to shit like drugs/alcohol/internet addiction or other self destructive behaviour. Make sure to keep yourself in check. :)

yeah, consumerism is really just an illusory desire fed by extremely powerful corporations that build an image in order to keep all humans in society as kneeled meeky slaves to their products

however my question runs slightly deeper than that

material goods... they stopped giving any satisfaction a while ago, and I believe that the same process occurs for every human

then afterwards if you satisfy your thirst for knowledge and truth too much, as Drinky Crow said earlier life sometimes becomes a little too hard to sip in foolishness

and I believe that after the ephemeral satisfaction of artificial desires wilts, what truly makes someone happy and freed is when he stops being ashamed of himself -- to truly accomplish that though, even if someone has some extremely good self-confidence, the validation of some of his peers is probably mandatory, though

Me too. Honestly, if you can't find a single fucking thing worth your money than you're probably some hippy socialist with a bad attitude.

V for Vendetta is more than deserving of your hard earned cash.

oh well, it was fun to have a nice philosophical discussion and I've had some sensible answers, but yeah you guys are partially right there's only so much wit that can come out of these abstract topics on a gaming board before it delves into ad hominem digs

I really don't want to a repeat of this game, looks like I have the possibility to lock my own topics so I'm going to be wise, lock it and read my Nietzsche books instead from now on :)

You are such pathetic troll.  Sorry there is no way in the world you have ever had a female talk to you let alone tolerate your presence long enough for you to weasel your way into her pants.  I'd sooner belive you lived on the moon or that you were made of gold.

Don't start this shit up again.

Nothing wrong with being a virgin.  Mondain is just such a twerp that he actually thinks anyone would believe he has had sex before.  Outside of incestual childhood molestation I can not fathom another possible way Mondain would know the touch of a female.
