So, I see everyone is well educated, either through education, life, or both. Anyone not taking themselves too seriously?
You should take it all seriously, since you only get one life, then you are gone.
i don't take myself overly seriously. i take some things seriously. my own persona isn't one of them. but not everyone here or anywhere else is well education, by any definition. i encounter a lot of ignorance everywhere, and it is hard not to take that seriously.

The problem with that theory is that is, firstly most people have only limited intelligence with which to work, Secondly, to be educated by life, one must have attained more age that most have...the older I got, the more educated I became...but I grew old too soon to have it be much use. Or, as that old German saying went: "Too soon I got old, too late I got smart."
Suppose you pack a few lifetimes into your first forty?
The secret of being successful as a human being is having everything in balance. Real intelligence is understanding that fact.
