uestion: What is the definition of the art of living well?
This definition has so many answers and the part that drives me crazy is that all of the answers or most of them are right. One might say that it means to live a life of riches. You know, having name-bran close or driving a nice car. One might say sexual pleasure or just having nothing at all. Well I have another question to ask you. Are you living well? Is your life, as Laura would say, One big ball of fluffy fur? Tell me, How do you know if you’re living well? Some people might try answering these questions without even having a second thought of this whole thing. I personally can answer this question. Yes, I’m living well. How do I know? Check this out.
This world is full of judgement about the way people should walk, talk, look, think, act, feel, etc. I learned that being myself is good enough. Sometimes we tend to be someone that we know that’s not US. We tend to change our values just because the world tells us to. Thus, changing our values and morals. Some people make decisions based on the reaction of other people. Face it. We’ve all made that mistake. Being myself, helps me to be a better person. I can think freely, act the way I want to, walk the way I want to, talk the way I want to. Look the way I want to. If you keep an opened mind and a positive outlook. The world is your foot stool. I found out that being myself drew more people to me that I can call friends. It has made me a more likable person. Yes, it’s true that some don’t like me because of the way I do things but it wouldn’t kill me. When you’re living well, you are free. You feel confident when you say your opinion about things. You love others an most of all love yourself. There are people in this world who are still enslaved because they let people control their way of living. Be free and true to yourself. You have inalienable rights. I know that the U.S. Constitution says in the first amendment, freedom of the press, speech and so on. However, you have other rights. So many that they can’t list them all. Here are a few questions I want you to think about. If you want to know more about rights read The Seeder Post. By Jack R. Rose.
1. Who are you? (Think about that)
2. Do you love yourself?
3. Am I keeping all of my inherent rights?
I know some of you may not take this to heart but its worth a try. I don’t even know what possessed me to write this but I did. Take it to your heart, not your head.
Any questions? You know where I am

You left out something:
We need to consider what wellness actually is. It seems to me that when someone says "I am well" it could mean physical health, mental state, or...who knows.
Now, let us look at this business of rights:
At many points throughout our lifetime, yes, rights are constantly violated. We are judged, sensored, and so on no matter what we do.
Let us now explore what it is to love oneself. Furthermore, what is the point?
Love, to make a crude assertion, is a deep and often selfless caring and understanding. So, how can one be selfless to oneself? You cannot...this is a paradocs!
This means that to love oneself is not possible.
To sum up, none of us are really living well.
Just a question: Why do we assume we are born with any rights, where does it say we have any rights, we're just born and then we hve to make the best of it, we have no certificate of justice, no deposit of freedom (freedom is the most over rated concept in history anyway, if you re floating in outer space all by yourself you hve the perfect freedom, you can do whatever, be whatever and dress like whatever you please and I guarantee no one is going to criticize you, simply because there's no one there).
Also, if we have rights to dress as we want, say, anyone's got the right to tell us wearing sweat pants at the job interview, a tuxido in the sauna or a purple ski suit to bed makes us look like complete idiots, with good justification too.
We're not so much born with rights as responsibilities and duties to each other.
So, put on that purple ski suit, think about the self and your rights, you've got nothing else to do when that chick who was going to dig you walks out the door in disbelief at your complete lack of dress sense.
And, aah, if there's no "you" everything to do with the concept of "you" is wrong so nothing really matters, Q E D.
I don't understand why you went off on the way people dress...but are you really going to sit there and tell me that nobody deserves rights.
