--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 14 Aug 2015, 11:19 ---A lot of philosophers through history would instantly have diagnosed Sven's problem as pursuing and achieving pleasure instead of happiness.
--- End quote ---
At least one pointed out that pursuit itself leads to suffering. In my tradition, we would say that Sven has at last seen the hoofprints of the ox.
anahata:
At first I thought Sven's apology was an insincere attempt to wriggle out of trouble, but in retrospect I think he's learned a little humility for the first time, and he really meant it. Of course it was expressed in wildly exaggerated terms because it's not a feeling he's used to having or talking about.
As for Dora, I'm not entirely surprised she's agreed to talk to Sven, because her decision to cut him off seemed out of the blue and unpremeditated. And then Sven's apology obviously did come across as genuinely heartfelt.
I wonder if Sven's ever hugged anyone outside of one of his seduction episodes?
hedgie:
Other than blood relatives. At least Hanners that we know of.
Alphawolf55:
Remind me why Sven is so apparently horrible and undeserving of forgiveness unlike Tai,, Dora and Faye?
KOK:
No reason. That Dora declared him "toxic" says much more about her than about him.
