If you've got the Modern, distorted version of those words within your life your probably a walking sack of misery.
Well, I'm certainly not that, but I'm incredibly cynical and often stoic.

completely true within my heart.
I see you're a dualist. I'm not a dualist. The only heart I "believe" in is the one that pumps my blood and keeps me alive (for now). "Soul," "heart," "spirit," I don't do those things. And yes, this does lead to my assertion that "free will" does not exist either.

Nonetheless, I'm not a walking sack of misery, much to the chagrin of those who think I should or wish I was because of the way I think. So many assume that I should be miserable when they hear what I say. But I'm not.
