Happiness

ALL BEINGS TREMBLE BEFORE DANGER, ALL FEAR DEATH. WHEN A PERSON CONSIDERS THIS, THAT PERSON WILL NOT KILL OR CAUSE TO KILL.

ALL BEINGS FEAR BEFORE DANGER, LIFE IS DEAR TO ALL. WHEN A PERSON CONSIDERS THIS, THAT PERSON DOES NOT KILL OR CAUSE TO KILL.

THE PERSON WHO FOR THE SAKE OF HAPPINESS HURTS OTHERS WHO ALSO WANT HAPPINESS, SHALL NOT HEREAFTER FIND HAPPINESS.

THE PERSON WHO FOR THE SAKE OF HAPPINESS DOES NOT HURT OTHERS WHO ALSO WANT HAPPINESS, SHALL HEREAFTER FIND HAPPINESS.

GAUTAMA SIDDARTHA, a buddha

There is probably nothing other that we need to know. All the "commandments" of all the religions and moralities that have ever existed and that are worthwhile as a guide to living and actually being, which in itself is happiness, are contained in these simple statements of fact.

There is no meaning to life, but life itself.
