Under fire
Apart from Going to school, work, and administrative procedures, one might say, it is somehow mostly to the "good life", right? Are not we living in a leisure society, and is not leisure-time = pleasure? Does not rotate so far everything about joy-time, thus maximizing pleasure?
Yes, somehow has to do Arts course with joy. But to limit the opportunities for joy in their free time, I'd pity. Why should not I at school with joy to be there to do work on bread with joy, or a troubled officials meet with joy?
is always and everywhere the opportunity to celebrate - if we are open because of it. By robustness, we defend the hard-conquered islands of joy at home and Arts. Without openness, we forgive us but the chance to discover more of these islands. Joy is indeed up to her, by definition, contradictory situations such as those of loss and justified fear always possible. However, we feel that probably not.
I think the feeling most people get most of the time "under fire". The sparkling life force in them, their "will to pleasure" has to constantly take cover from hostile action. Imperceptibly from the mundane to reach to significant and obvious or severe.
may be imperceptibly small the annoyance of someone who has given us the door is not stopped. But also an uncertainty as to the employment relationship may look like next year, need not be obvious, but can remain latent and almost imperceptibly press the joy in everyday life.
Banal is when a warning reminding us for weeks to a low account balance. Obviously, the "bombardment" of our joy when we are compelled by a tailgaters on the highway.
And when we experience severe cuts in our lives like fire or accident, which put our planning, our sense of security to the test.
A good life does not happen just like that also. It results not only from almost entirely natural, but we have basically always do something about it. Apparently is not joy possible without that we defend ourselves against everything, or at least work hard for it. But that is not
naturally? Sort of. Life's just a vale of tears - right? So it looks like at least if you look at the faces of the commuters on buses and trains in a big city like Hamburg. There is no joy to read.
me it seems initially quite plausible that exists between robustness and openness of a permanent imbalance. To withstand the hostility of everyday life can be much in demand robustness and openness seems to be little pay off. It looks as if the Wall is the joy only thicker, stronger and more united.
But was that ever different? Was also the former perhaps better? Yes and no.
Yes, I think, earlier it was different because the world was less complex earlier. Where only two washing machines with only one dealer in range to choose from, there is no fear on from making the wrong choice, because you have researched the options and inadequate price options. A world where the ogre distant mythical beings, of which only few Slowcoach report produced only homely horror in the face of such further atrocities, but a world in which suicide bombers or other political violence perpetrators potentially anyone with extinction or mutilation threaten, who thinks only of a long-distance - and the millions each year - which affects the feeling of joy of course.
On the other hand, no sooner it was of course no different. The world was less complex, but is also offered in the smaller, more mundane domestic world plenty of chances, "bombardment" of joy to feel. Today it is a great suffering for many women to have a child - in the past it was a great sorrow to avoid a child can not. Today generates threat of unemployment or real insecurity and existential fears - in the past was often synonymous with unemployment Nahrungslosigkeit and therefore death.
was past and today and is the joy that is "under fire". Whether this attack is stronger today ... This is an open question. My feeling is that many people feel it more today. The reason: their desire for freedom and self determination.
Yes, I think, as simple as that
Who wants to live in freedom and self-determined - and the biggest majority in the Western world, I would take time - which is tantamount can not help yourself to the balancing of robustness and to take care of openness. And those who take care of themselves to something, of course, noticed what prevents him from what he makes this effort all the easier. Who
A must finish what you start. Thus, with the freedom and self determination. Who wants to enjoy it - who says so, whether to enjoy at all - who frees herself from all disabilities and ultimately, of all the supports. See
is in every child: In the beginning a child lives with joy in a sheltered world. His freedom and self-determination operate in a very narrow framework. But then the child develops more of its own. It aims beyond the frame. For example, it wants to buy more toys or clothes as his parents. So extend the framework and the parents give the child some pocket money to have it decide certain. This process then continues to own Monetary salary, the maximum self-determination (within budget) permits - but does not offer more support. In the end, everyone in the child's age and grown out of pocket money people solely responsible for his bank balance. Parents can do and should not serve as supports to Sankt indefinitely.
And so it is ultimately in all areas of life. Who wants to be less constrained to decide who would like yourself who seeks freedom from restrictions and on everything ... who must live with the consequences of self-determination and self-responsibility.
freedom means the absence of props, frames, targets. Or more precisely, simply accepted the waiver of Frame on unquestioned rules, unreflective traditions, thoughtless faith. And so I'm
back to PQ. For PQ helps to fill the gap caused by the release of rules, frames, traditions, beliefs. I mean, who wants to be truly free and thus to self-determination "convicted" of doing good is it to develop a philosophical attitude. Because it offers a way of questioning the joy to come in balancing.
