Who cares if life isn't fair, why would you expect it to be fair? That entire outlook is bullshit and unnecessary. Maybe try harder to achieve your goals or at least put forth effort to make your life less shitty. Play the game or don't, it's up to you.

If you really can't change your mindset I'd recommend trying psilocybin or LSD, it's helped my change my perspective on life.

I assume they didn't account for suicide by self-detonated explosion.

Lost my shit at the "you walk like a jaguar" line. This is too good to be real.

>Catholicism
Seriously though. Defend yourselves. No epic meme-frog responses, no fedora responses, no calling anybody a heathen. Defend your beliefs.

A memorandum on the background of happiness:
Now in divulging what happiness is we encounter that it is something of a transparent shell of awareness that operates with soap bubble awareness, so to speak, as in to say that it is gracing the surface of the subject in questions holding and has a simple permission sequence of accessing the inside, but at the fact of slicing into the surface of the allegory in question and giving a friction of awareness to whom that is noting the contents of the bubble which can just as easily be deduced has giving a bit of perspective tension to the area around the bubble- but there's something shining about to innards of the bubble, and that can be said to be the contrived partial perspective of the one whom is noting the nature of the refraction of the bubble, which is: gentle anger, and I use those terms as to the explicit ends of each having the others inferred intensity; this note of a psychedelic instrument of where gentleness is the key to the holding and enjoying of the tunes of swirls that the bubble plays is the functioning base of the, so to speak, passive dabbing on the keys, which is simply pressure; the intensity of what is happening as you empathize with the safety or familiarity of your environment combined with the obscureness of that which is outside being inside something so placidly can hold a definition of what can be said to peak your curiosity in that way of what is a gentle aggression (albeit it be a little more innocent in happiness then it is in curiosity which is a more of conspirance), but this peaking is an empathy pinnacle, it endows you in its time frame as a self forgiving and finding your place of identity as flawless and perfected beyond care, now that can span a lot of situations but is never the less a true gem of the variety of natures of the passive enlightenment that can be sought after and found.

>My detractors make light of my stealing from grannies on eBay. What's next, making fun of lions for eating gazelles? O the absurdities the weaklings will keep concocting to excuse their weaknesses! And if I and the lions are worthy of derision for preying on grannies and gazelles, what is to be said of those who are too scared to even do that much?
