As long as you respect.........
........others and don't allow this philosophy to override the feelings of everyone around you, I can understand your point of view. As an adult we can be discerning in our actions so that we don't hurt others around us. But the problem is children can't. Case in point....look at our teenagers today..........quite hedonistic,to the point where selfishness and rudeness are the norm, not the exception.There has to be a happy medium.............perhaps in loving your neighbor as you love yourself.

One problem
All of things things can be great, but it is beteer to thing about the consequences of everything you do, regardless of how it makes you feel. Here is a better philosophy: plan your life.

They all sound good except for
the playing slots. Gambling has hurt many people. I used to live in Nevada, and watched people actually spend their rent and utility money on the hope of hitting it big. Scary stuff for some people.

Self-sacrifice gets someone nowhere but to the graveyard faster.
It's important to find even brief flashes of happiness. Good post, Jeff.
