| "Would you accept a peaceful, but boring life?"
No. Maybe I'm not as self-actualized as the rest of you, but I want a world that I can change for the better. As a scientist I work to help humanity on a physical level. As a political actavist I try to make our nation better. As a humanist I try to help the poor and unfortunate.
I only gain meaning in my life by trying to make life better for me and others. If there were nothing to improve I would lead a stagnent and meaningless life.
Fixed ideas are like a cramp in the foot - the best remedy against it is to tread on it.
