That's actually a good point. |

I do not write on this forum to debate, only to exhange thoughts. If you wish to change the impression you have left on me, you'll have a hard time working it out. This far you have only succeeded in embarassing yourself in my eyes. Though, I really doubt you'll want to change it or even succeed if you wanted. |

Jujutsu is the gentle art. It's the art where a small man is going to prove to you, no matter how strong you are, no matter how mad you get, that you're going to have to accept defeat. That's what jujutsu is.
That's actually a good point. |

I think it would be more appropriate to say that 'better' is the state of being, 'resulted' from the removal of uneasiness, caused by the conditions of its removal - according to your context of its usage. |

I stomp on your ideas.
Yea it would be difficult. I guess suffering is just too ambiguous a word to discuss without putting it in context. Perhaps it is like Wittgenstein's point concerning pain. You can be mistake about someone else's pain (suffering in this case) but you can never be mistaken whether you are in pain. |

Suffering isn't mere unease. I'm a bit thirsty now but am not suffering. It has to be pretty strong unease. |

So do the corollaries of each. |

I've lived through many extreme sufferings, and nobody has thought of me to be anything more. I always have a smile on my face but nobody ever notices, not that i care. I know for a fact i am who i am today because of everything i've been through, and nobody i could ever talk to. |
