What do you think is a good life? Where does the music play at?

Everyone has their own preferences hobbies, goals, etc., but is there something where everyone could agree on? Something objective that make's one's life good?

Is itm ore the way for a safe, quite and comfortable living (which many people don't have after all) or should it be filled with more excitement, risk, passion and ups and downs?

Should you focus on special goals or is a varied approach better?

Are personal goals (like health, finance, social goals) better or should one contribute to society (politically / or social activities)?

In a world filled with so many opportunities and billions of life strings I kinda got lost in what I should pursue. Thus this is more a discussion thing than an actual advice. But I'm curious how others think about it.

After all You said everything by yourself already.

In my opinion every human is in his own way individual in terms of his way of thinking, experiences, preferences, way of dealing with problems but for the most liking different things and therefore seeing certain things good which other people would call bad or strange.

I think almost every human´s life goal is like what your title says lifing a good life and beeing happy.

So this is where we all agree and the fact that every person for example laughs when he is happy do proove this theory i think.

But that is also the point where general accordance ends. The fact that every person as an individual is unique leads to 7 billion different point of views what happinnes in the end really is. The views may end up matching in some points for example many people get happy watching football with their friends but no one would agree in every point with another person. There will always be the tiniest fraction of difeference between all humans.

the thing is we should all be able to accept the fact that we cant define a general definition of a good life. Maybe for some people accepting that every person sees happines in a different way is what makes them happy.

Seeing the happines of other people and knowing that the only answer to your question is that there is no real answer is to me very satisfying and gives me room to look for my own happines while giving other people the opportunity to life their way of happines.

My reply might be a bit abstract as well as liberal as fuck but that is my point of view.

You're looking for absolute in a world of perception, that doesn't happen. One's good is an other's bad, you can't get anything universal from this kind of relativism.
