What would happen if we suddenly (or finally?) realized that the ONLY reason to be alive is to enjoy life? Would our attitude change? Let's think about this for a moment. If you reached the inner conviction that all the upset your experience is useless, that all the judgments you express are unfair, that all the resentment you harbor is groundless, how would you feel? Probably you are still convinced that you have the right to be upset when things don't go the way you want, that how you judge others is fair as you have good reasons to do so, that your resentment has ground because others have treated you badly. And you are absolutely right. You are entitled to believe all this. BUT.... are you happy because you believe you are right? Do you enjoy feeling this way? Is your life better, more pleasant and serene because of your "righteousness"?
