Beer, LSD, and a good women...maybe not in that order depending on who is asking.

A warrior is not a leaf at the mercy of the wind. No one can push him; no one can make him do things against himself or against his better judgment. A warrior is tuned to survive, and he survives in the best of all possible fashions." ― Carlos Castaneda

The good life is one where you are able to extend your compassion wider and wider until it encompasses the entire universe. The good life is the life dedicated to Love.

Looks like we've got some ideologies about life, some things to do in life, some ways of doing things in life, some discourse on the good life ("What is the good life?") but only a few of you have talked about the form of a good life (the posture, feeling and experience of [maybe knowing] "this is the shit").

I think we can think about aspects of life, but life as a whole is an experience. Reflecting upon aspects of the experience, things, others...can be used to adjust ourselves and to make ourselves better at life. The one with the good life is good at life.

What is the good life?
To know that you have been given eternal life by the atoning blood and imputed righteousness of Jesus Christ. Even though we are reviled by the world, we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.

^^^they said good life, not the lie-infested one.
Whatever though everyone has their own opinions. I guess the good life is when you can live that life with a truly happy self.
