Hmm, now that I think about it, it holds true for most circumstances. Pero I do think it can end completely sometimes.

Law of Conservation of Suffering? hehe

www.plurk.com/enzulu : kind of like that

www.plurk.com/karlababes : I'm reading "The Giver", it makes that interesting point; someone has to suffer ...

sometimes I think the secret of happiness is to create a bubble for yourself small enough for you not to see the rest of the truths in life.

This suggests, of course, that that encompassing "truth" will be a very sad one

Haha, oo nga noh, Law of Conservation of Suffering. LOL, potential and kinetic lang siya minsan

If you create a "bubble" for yourself in that your perspectives and ideals will be limited to the things that suit you, you could be happy

and that suffering you "conserved", will be out of your "bubble"

AlejandroFederico Who wrote it? Maybe I can read it one time -- after I finish some books off my (very long) list

...this suggests a very ignorant lifestyle, though

AKO NAUNA BLEH

enzulu Parang ignorance is bliss?

It's a short book so I automatically like it.

www.plurk.com/enzulu : strangely enough, yun ung premise nung book, everyone lives in a bubble but someone is "chosen" to suffer ..

Lois Lowry

karlababes yeah, kinda like that

it IS an easier way, compared to say, know everything and make sense of everything

AlejandroFederico wow, that's a coincidence! haha

enzulu FOOOOYN Hahaha.

But honestly, would you rather live in bliss than knowing the truth?

Altho of course, you wouldnt know that you didnt know. Hahaha.

www.plurk.com/karlababes : it's a choice; the people in the book made their choice; we can make ours as well ...

Oh okay. Ikaw, would you rather suffer or live in happiness?

ang cheesy

HAHAHAHA ONGA NOH

If the cost is ignorance, happiness probably won't be worth that much ...

live in happiness syempre.. hahaha

not really in ignorance, but rather, on knowing what you know matters and does not in this kaleidoscope world

www.plurk.com/enzulu : Oh, love also causes unhapiness; things like that would have to go ... ...

I think no "joy" is worth having without the suffering.

www.plurk.com/karlababes : it would be a boring existence though; and it doesn't mean there would be no suffering just that we

wouldn;t know about it, wherever it is

suffering is inevitable anyway, right? It may or may not come from some other unknowing source, but shit will always happen in life

Yeah but what I'm saying is it only makes the good things in life much "sweeter" if we have to go through suffering first.
