Good evaluation. I agree, just having momentary pleasures does not ensure a life of happiness, it takes peace with one's soul to achieve true happiness.
I agree that pleasure and happines are distinctly different. Pleasure is short-term and is ofter forgotten soon after the sensation fades. Happiness is contentment that comes from being satisfied with the way in which one lives their life; taking into account the joy, pain, trials, tribulations, successes, and failures.
You developed your idea well, and it is very easy to understand your paper. I agree that pleasue has the tendency to be "short-term" and fades, leaving no happiness. There being the difference between them.
I agree with you!! Your paper was well thought out and well written. I like how you pointed out that we learn from what is not pleasure.
I really enjoyed your paper, But I feel that if one never experiences unhappiness then they will not know the true joy of being happy.
very nicely stated! i agree with your statements. i have seen this exemplified in the lives of others.
Good job. People may learn from their experiences but, I don't know if I agree with you on your statement that they discover a state of happiness from learning from their experiences. If someone always has a bad experience and learns from it doesn't make that person happy.
Very well agured, and I agree.
I think the last sentence of your paper sums up the whole idea rather nicely. Having pleasure doesn't equal having happiness, but being happy almost ensures some kind of pleasure. I agree wholeheartedly.
I totally agree with your points. It is a very good paper.
I agree with your paper completely. It makes even more sense since we have been studying Aristotle and his theories on happiness and pleasure. Pleasure is neither bad nor good, it is only the side-product of action, therefore, it can not lead to happiness, which is seen as a good thing.
I agree, there is more to happiness than many pleasures added to one another
I feel the same as you--people can learn from unpleasurable experiences and find happiness as a result.
Well put.
Cool topic and response. I agree.
