The Good Life

Whenever I have a client who's really gotten up there in years, who contently declares, "I've had a really good life."  I get far more curious to hear their story than the ones who have lost all joy and meaning to their life. I want to know how. Want to know if it started that way. And when you listen to their stories, you just know that it did. I like to be around that kind of energy because it's inspiring.  They smile more, seem more at ease than the rest, and I want the second half of my life to be something that brings me to say- at 80 years old: I've had a good life.

So what makes a good life? What is your list? What will you do to make sure you do?

What would make my life perfect is to see Capitalism completely destroyed in my lifetime. But I know that won't happen.

It's all about inner peace and balance. If your brain presents reality in a fucked up way to you by default then all your plans for a nice life are screwed from the beginning.

I guess that makes us opposites, usually someone down on their luck grabs my attention faster, since the story of their fall serves as a warning of sorts. I also have trouble relating to happy people's experiences, at times it almost seeming like describing something alien and strange.

A good life comes from how one perceives the life they're living. What's ideal for one could be hell for another.

My list is pretty much just a lack of discomfort with enough entertainment to keep me distracted with some BDSM on the side.
