The World Is HUGE [BUT We're Small]

The World Is HUGE [BUT We're Small]

The World Is HUGE [BUT We're Small], indeed it is.  We'll just NEVER have enough time for everything we want to do in our limited years.  And that stark TRUTH can bring despair if we constantly fight against it.  BUT instead of struggling, Bertrand Russell, the respected British philosopher, was quoted "LET YOUR INTEREST BE AS WIDE AS POSSIBLE AND LET YOUR REACTIONS TO THE THINGS AND PERSONS WHO INTEREST YOU BE AS FAR AS POSSIBLE FRIENDLY RATHER THAN HOSTILE"πŸ“ŒπŸ“ŒπŸ“Œ

Russell's key message here is that instead of struggling, he advises us to pick up areas of interests that captivate us [like AI [Artificial Intelligence] and the electric cars of Elon Musk] BUT basketball or chess would just as well.  In that way, we could temporarily slip the constraints of time and find momentary HAPPINESSπŸ“—πŸ“™πŸ“˜
Modern research agrees with Russell that OPENNESS is very much linked to both creativity and intelligence and even to slow down MENTAL AGING.  Being open to new experiences seems to help us to keep our mind 'YOUNG'.  So, apparently, even science has found new benefits to being FRIENDLY rather than HOSTILE to new people, interests and ideas.  And should that initial CURIOSITY develop into a hobby, so much the betterπŸ’ŽπŸ’ŽπŸ’Ž
Studies do show that having diverse interests helps us to develop a broader SENSE of SELF.  Like you're NOT just an entrepreneur or a dad but you could be a bowler and a surfer as well.  Which means that whenever we run into difficulties in one of these areas of life, we can draw STRENGTH and CONFIDENCE from others.  As they say, WHEN BUSINESS GETS ROCKY, THE SURFING WAVES MUST BE ROCKING❗❗❗
Indeed, exploring the world with a sense of wonder, developing a portfolio of interests and identities plus allowing ourselves to get 'LOST' in them regularly is the kind of HAPPINESS ADVICE just about anyone can implement.  Indeed, nothing can make our life less fleeting or even removing all the stress from our lives.  But with all the challenges [and noise] we face in our daily life, it seems like it could help if we can squeeze more HAPPINESS from our 'GOOD DAYS' and then, 'BUFFER' it for some of the 'BAD DAYS'.  We can till make things happen even if THE WORLD IS HUGE [BUT WE'RE SMALL]✅✅✅
