Being here in Los Angeles during the fall, the funny economy that I see here; literally the dynamic range between the direct sun, the beautiful glorious light and the shade is almost like 40° in temperature? When you’re in the drug sun, it is like pure bliss, pure heaven, but when you are in the shade, it is super fucking cold and miserable?
And the funny thing is it is like literally on the other side of the building. And you have the option; to be outside in the direct sun, which is pure heaven, or to just intentionally be in the shade, in the darkness, or even worse indoors, when you have the option to be in the sun?
So you have the option, why being in the shade?
Just move to the sun?
Also in life, certainly there are options and we got options. Opt, opinion… apparently this is the same word. To choose or to believe. 
Difficult to change the world, but easy to change your opinion.
An opinion is just your preferences, what you decide to do or what you decide not to do. For example you have the option of just moving to the sun if your heart desire desires, but also this is an option, you don’t have to if you don’t want to.
And also, once again this is the big thing; if you have the option to choose joy sunlight and happiness, why would you choose the miserable dark?
Choose joy!
This is my aesthetic; I would prefer to choose the deep, the dark, the morose Spartan sinister happy joy rather than be the emo loser instead?
This is the visual; you know the Spartans when they are fighting in the shape, and they are laughing smiling and joking sinister, with their black teeth, fighting in the shade of the arrows, perhaps this is how we should approach life!
Health
So I almost wonder if 99% of our misery is the fact that people just have poor health. For example myself, when I have poor digestion or when I don’t feel well… This could literally reduce 90% of my joy.
So simple things; intermittent fasting. During the day. No breakfast no lunch, no beverages during the day besides water and the black coffee. I find that any other strange substances, fluids or whatever, causes my stomach to turn.
So the same thing is if you want greatest supreme the best clarity during the day, with no stomach troubles, it actually seems that the optimal strategy in life is to not consume anything during the day, once again no food no substances no sugars or stimulants or downers or uppers or whatever, because when you consume these things, it changes Your health your digestion your mood.
Kids and food
What is very very interesting is that a kid, when they are full or done eating, they don’t force themselves to over consume food. They either spit it out, or take it out of their mouth and throw it away. Very wise.
So if you have a little bit of food left over, better to just wrap it up and put in the fridge, or throw it away, rather trying to virtuously finish the food, like a “good person“, rather than risk having a really really upset stomach, sleeping poorly and actually feeling poor the next day or morning.
