Life Wish - Aristotles
Can we put the gibberish and Angel speak aside
for a moment?
What is your life wish, really?

Not sure what you mean, I was just being poetic.

Very well then. Grow up.
You still need to define the goals in your life,
so you can make the right decisions,
about actions to be taken,
that will affect your life.
It is called: Philosophy.
It is a dynamic set of rules you establish during your life
that guides your decision making processes and your actions.
He then made a Socrates face, and said:
For example, why do you want to go to Tel Aviv today?

Well, because I want to be with Reggy.

Yes, but why do you want to be with her?

because I love her?

Yes, but Why do you love her?

I was building minor anger, from frustration:
You know she asked me the same question!

Lucky for you the face was just for the talk,
and my preachings are not those of Socrates.
It goes like this:
FOR EVERY CHAIN OF REASONS THERE MUST BE AN END.
This is implied by my logic - Aristotelian - the only one practical.
It means that the last question must always be left without an answer,
and this is your real goal.
"Because this is what you want" is a perfect answer,
and why you might want it is less important.
What is important, is identifying what it is that you really
want out of your life, and what it is that you do to get there.
For that second part you will need a philosophy.
I suggest the Aristotelian. There is nothing else.
He paused and made a Socrates face again,
as if that was that same nagging question.
(What is your life wish, really?)

A friend came by today and he said something very
peculiar that made me think of you and your question.
He said: "I like learning from other people's mistakes.
I mostly like learning from your (that's me) mistakes,
because you always try to be different,
like me, and most people
don't trend where you and I make mistakes."

I think what I want from my life is to know
it was meaningful in the end,
and for that I need to be different,
and for that I attach myself to esoteric people,
and for the meaning to be self convincing enough
I need the subject of my differences to be
that which concerns me the most,
and that is the fine balance between good and evil.
How can you tell if the actions you take will end up having
good or evil effect?
I want mine to be good, in a way that expresses difference.
In other words, I can't really be different,
I can just be better at it.

Like I said, you will find your own way.
As a warning, I should say:
she may have introduced us, but she is not a follower.
Be cautious!

Life Wish - God
Do the right thing, you are Man,
and can be rational if you want to be.
Your SuperEgo prevails.
Be fruitful and multiply, let your Id loose,
but don't be careless, guard yourself with your Ego,
and your own with the Super Ego.

Oh God, now you really got me confused.
You have written too many bibles, they all look the same.
I'm just a kid. I could use something simple to go by.

Life Wish - The Ten - 5
Exodus Ch. 20, V. 12:

"Honor your father and your mother..."

being a Darwin fan myself,
I'd ask the Wolves and the Bees how improtant
protection of family is for survival.

It is not incidental that the Yom Kippur highest order
law of forgivness is the asking of forgiveness from a friend.
The phrasing is "friend", not just "others".
The closer the friend, the more important it is
not to harm them, and ask forgivness if you do.

This is the base of the first and second laws of
humanhood working in tandem, and is a force
(hopefully) stronger than the risk implied by the conflicts.
simply put:
Your own Survival depends on your friends and family.

It goes without saying that your father and mother
are the closest of your firends in the Pack or Hive.

Not surprisingly, the Bible, Darwin, Aristotle, Jesus,
Ayn Rand and Assimov all share the opinion.

Life Wish - The Ten - 6-8
Exodus Ch. 20, V. 13-15:

Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Thou shalt not steal.

The source does not bother to explain, for obvious reasons.
