We are nothing for suffering (my story)

In conclusion, I would like to say that a true emotionally sensitive human being would have both immense value towards his/her own feelings of pleasure as well as the pleasure of others. To instead have no value towards pleasure in general at all (both yours and others) and instead find value in other things in life (or even value towards life itself for that matter), you would truly be the lesser person who has no part in the title of an "emotionally sensitive human being" whatsoever. You would not only demean yourself for abandoning the greatest aspect of you as a person (which is your pleasure), but you would also be demeaning of others by, for example, telling other people to abandon their value of pleasure in general and to find greater thing in life as well as to tell these people to tell others this same message. This would be truly offensive and demeaning of someone with depression or anhedonia who is on the brink of suicide who feels his/her life is basically no longer worth living without his/her pleasure. <snip>

Mozart,

I remember rather vividly spending a whole lot of time on you to no particular purpose. Go back and read your original thread. This is nothing new. You need to get well. This fixation isn't helping. Do seek treatment.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
