Hendonism

[Fajita Jim]

Do you think being hedonistic is a bad thing? Obviously, anything taken too far is bad, but that's not what I'm talking about. I mean, do you think the pursuit of pleasure is a vice?

I'm pretty hedonistic and make no apologies. I love my free time and modern comforts.

You never find fullvulling joy but you will find purpose. I don't think having pleasure as a goal is gonna make your life all that good. Look at all these artists dying from overdoses..

Artists OD'ing doesn't necessarily have to do with hedonism.

no but often their ultimate goal is pleasure and you would think a pop singer has pretty good chances of finding that. look at what most songs are about.

If they died from an overdose that would mean that either they didnt find any pleasure in life and decided it would be better to die, or that they took things too far.

yeah but that's the point, you will never find pleasure in life. you will always have bad days/weeks/months/years, that's life. if your life isn't enjoyable and exiting. does that mean you failed life? even though you are helping other people, contributing to society, being decent to others. ect ect? that's what hedonism says.

most people don't even succeed in the last things... let alone live a exiting and fun life...

The first hurdle to a fun and enjoyable life always tends to be living yours rather than trying to copy someone else's.

Most people fail at this for a long time.

Considering pop and overdoses go hand in hand i wouldnt say that a fair statement.
