Anton Chekhov

Life does not agree with philosophy: There is no happiness that is not idleness, and only what is useless is pleasurable.

Useless

A useless life
Useless excuse.
A waste of life
Waste of breath.
Useless useless

Useless bitch.
Useless in every way
Just so useless

My life is complicated
It is useless
Its a hopeless cause.

I may as well just end things
And go far away

The philosophy to live

The life is
respect and dignity
My philosophy of
life is to
live with dreams
Is satisfying to
think at the
philosophy to live
The philosophy to
live is sacred
and genuine
Is essential that
the philosophy to
live is a
conscious and satisfying
act of our
personal existence
The philosophy to
live must be
defended from excessive
attacks
The philosophy to
live will be
a peaceful and
motivated revolution
The life is
a great and
magnificent work
The life must
be lived slowly
because only thus
can be authentic
The life is
not appearance
The life travels
in the present
The life is
an alternation of
emotions and sensations
There shouldn't be
obsessions in life
because it's an
unrepeatable and extravagant
thing

Can't See (Useless)

We were both cast forth from the same pale hand
And we both moved freely in the shadowlands
And we both were sculpted by the same cold wind
And we both had armor that was made of tin
And I tried to find you, but it's useless
And I tried to speak, but it was useless
And I felt so bad and I didn't know why
And it didn't get better as time went by
I was there for you, but you turned away
And I tried to find you, but you turned away
And I tried to find you, but it's useless
And I tried to speak, but was useless
And I tried to find you, but it's useless
And you're so close, but I can't see you
And you're right there, but I can't see you
And I feel so dumb and I didn't know what to do
You were right there but I can't see you
And I realize that it's useless
And I want to fight, but it's useless
And I know you're there, but it's useless
And you're everywhere, but it's useless
And I tried to say it, but my tongue got tied
And I tried to say it, but I was numb inside
And I can't see you anymore
And my peace of mind has gone through the door
And I realize that it's useless
And I thought I was right, but it was useless
And I know you're there, but it's useless
And you're everywhere, but it's useless
And I can't see now in front of my nose
And I know you're there, and I know you're close
And you're fading away - now you disappear
And I try to focus, but I can't see clear
And I don't know why I feel this way
And I can't control myself anyway
And I don't know why I feel this way
And I can't control myself anyway
And I feel so bad, but it's useless
And I feel so bad, but it's useless
And I feel so bad, but it's useless
And I can't see... now in front of my face.

A Philosophy About The Wall

his philosophy is absurd
that this world is a big wall
and we all bump on it
and then we die and so

one day to prove his philosophy
he rides in his car starts the engine
and on a full speed bumps the wall of his house
indeed his car like paper
folded upon his head
crushed and bloody
he instantaneously died

for one thing i agree with him
death is never a lie.

What one decides to do in crisis depends on one's philosophy of life, and that philosophy cannot be changed by an incident. If one hasn't any philosophy in crises, others make the decision.

Happiness To Me

Does Happiness depend upon comfort? ’
The answer is definitely a big, ‘No! ’
Happiness lies in not comforts alone!
Happiness is not a static quality of the
human mind, body and soul.

All can’t remain happy all the time.
It would be foolishness to wish for a life,
filled with happiness alone;

Life could become boring, when happiness is prolonged.
Even A pauper can be happier than the prince.
Even A beggar smiles and sleeps well, despite much strife.

Happiness is a frame of mind that’s dynamic in nature;
Happiness is a kind of mood of feeling very well;
Happiness is a state of one, when life seems worth living;

Happiness is all within;
Happiness is in giving;
Happiness is in sharing;

Happiness does not depend on comforts;
Happiness cannot be bought by money;
Happiness is not all luxury;

Happiness is in being child-like, though adult;
Happiness is in sacrificing for others’ sake;
Happiness is in doing acts of charity;
Happiness is when you’ve led a righteous life.

Happiness to some is in dreams alone;
Happiness to some doing risky feats;
Happiness to a few is in a sheer lazy life;
Happiness to me is in loving.

Martin Heidegger

Every thinking of being, all philosophy, can never be confirmed by "facts", ie, by beings. Making itself intelligible is suicide for philosophy. Those who idolize "facts" never notice that their idols only shine in a borrowed light. They are also meant not to notice this; for thereupon they would have to be at a loss and therefore useless. But idolizers and idols are used wherever gods are in flight and so announce their nearness.

Here It Comes

I'm not so sure And yet I know
Give me your lie
It's worthless anyhow
And here it comes

I'm not so cold
As I like to think I am
Though I'll be found
Forever in your pain
And here it comes

I'd rather be no one than someone with no one
I'd rather be no one than someone with no one
I'd rather be no one than someone with no one to love
I'm just useless for her
And your useless for her

I'd rather be no one than someone with no one
I'd rather be no one than someone with no one
I'd rather be no one than someone with no one to love
I'm just useless for her
Yeah your useless for her
I'm just useless for her

There is pleasure when a sore is scratched, But to be without sores is more pleasurable still. Just so, there are pleasures in worldly desires, But to be without desires is more pleasurable still.

Teasing each other is a pleasure for lovers

Lovers tease each other for some time
For a silly reason and pretend to misunderstand
For the purpose of understanding
And happiness;

Teasing each other
Is a pleasure for love desire;
Then they convince each other;
And they enjoy the intimacy of love;

It is more pleasurable to enjoy
Conjugal happiness for ever;
While they happen to unite after
Cajoling and compromising the lover!

May her soul rest in peace

There she was in hesitation
Sobbing for her unhappy life
She was desperate for love
Happiness with peace
Understanding that is unconditionally
They came from all the directions
Places near or far
Dirty or clean
They took advantage for they saw no disadvantage of practising to giving love to the instigated girl
Her happiness was buried
Ten feat underground
Her heart had been ripped of like torn cloth
Her smile was bitter than the bitter est alkaline in the world
Her face was un pleasing as a dog
Her eyes told the untold
They never saw that she needed love and happiness but all they saw was a degraded girl who has nobody
They saw a spitting bowl
A useless girl who has no direction
They never cared
She was forced and overcame by the talks and spits that came out of their mouths
That she had to capitulate her happiness for then
There she was saying may my happiness rest in peace
That was the end of her dreams and life

What Happiness Is

happiness
is bliss

happiness,
is when you get a new puppy
happiness,
is when you get married
happiness,
is when you go on you first date
happiness,
is making your own decisions
happiness,
is graduating
happiness,
is getting you first job
happiness,
is falling in love
happiness
is being proud of who you are

happiness
is bliss

happiness,
is glowing
happiness,
is fun
happiness,
is an amazing feeling
happiness,
is when you smile all day
happiness,
is giving someone a hug just because you can
happiness,
is that light in your eyes
happiness,
is what makes the world go around

happiness,
is bliss

Inside my happiness...

Inside my happiness, there is nothing but happiness for me.
Inside my happiness, the colors are so bright and vivid and I am able to see everything clearly.
Inside my happiness, there were no dark times because in my happiness the sun always shines.
Inside my happiness, there is no pain, there is no fear and there certainly is no doubt.
Inside my happiness, we all live as one and there is peace for all beings.
Inside my happiness, there is God and he has planned all of this for me.
Inside my happiness, addiction never happend.
Inside my happiness, there are no sorrows and no tears for the hurt doesnt exist.
Inside my happiness, there is you, and you are everything.
Inside my happiness, there is a woman who is ready for life.
Inside my happiness, there is nothing but happiness for me.

A Life Philosophy

a life philosophy
not a philosophy on life
a living philosophy

clear concise defined
articulated in civil rights liberty
clemency morality humanitarian symmetry

it is not important to memorize words
words thoughts searched out through years decades
words become life beat peace harmonies

not a manifesto
not written out
not important to memorize

to write out
to be distorted
to be used to manipulate minds

a manifesto not
written out not
important to memorize not

no a great life philosophy
is lived in simplicity acts of humility
freedom gifted to all humanity

love in life
love for all life one life
love sacred fertile compassion love life

Happiness

Happines give me the strength,
I need
Happiness teaches us what the,
life means
A loving word and gentle kiss
It's like a sunflower; it follows,
the things you enjoy in your,
life

Happiness is the wey to success
Happiness never takes you down
You are my happiness
You cheer me when I am angry

Eliminating passion is not happiness
Happiness is
Having someone by your side to,
love

One thing is happiness to me
is you.

Sweet Sweet Death

Life is a game...
i am starting to see to
many disappointing sides of it
but then the light appears
illuminating the emptiness
inside me...

As my eyes close up heading
to the light death is my best
option as happiness feel my life
and end this pain take me away
let me live and pain no more
to finish this useless struggle...
to end this useless fight...
i stand up to my fate leaving
behind me all these regrets no more
worries and no more love as i embrace death
as death receives my soul, i welcome the
fading light, allowing
death to end my existence
