Ethical Hedonism, On Hedonic and Eudaimonic Well-Being aka SUBJECTIVE VITALITY

from What Do You Know? · host Mariha Smith Carey aka Dr. Sonia Nicole Levi

Beginning with the Jewish Prayer Shema.Nietzsche’s concept of “perspectivism,” suggesting that there is not only one objective truth to view the world but rather a multitude of different perspectives that are subject to individual and societal limitations. Basically, what is true for you may only be slightly true for someone else.In the work context you know on the US comedy show Martin, Shenehneh says to Pam and Gina, "You two are (emphatically) Employee & Employee. You wish you owned your own company like me: Shenehneh's Sho' 'Nough Hair Salon!"Some reports have said that perspective taking is so good that it can be considered a dyadic phenomenon even vicarious where the definition of Dyadic is something that consists of 2 elements or parts and the definition of Phenomenon is a spectacular situation or event that occurs but its explanation is difficult or questionable. The definition of Vicarious is experienced in the imagination through the feelings or actions of another person visa vie subjective arousal. For example, this sentence uses the word best:"I could glean vicarious pleasure from the struggles of my imaginary film friends in the entertainment industry" whereas professional psychologists have been using the definition of Subjective vitality, where subjective vitality refers to a positive feeling of aliveness and energy of one's self because of or due to another's aliveness and energy.The subject of Hedonism is controversial on its own, As seen in Las Vegas there are benefits to this but there are also negatives. The phrase “what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas” is the unofficial motto of this famous sin city of lights and debauchery. This allows hedonists the protection to pursue their desires without the knowledge of their pleasure seeking  ever leaving the borders of the city (Nédélec. 2016).Pleasure seeking is normal and also called ethical hedonism, it claims that pursuing pleasure and avoiding pain for oneself or others are the ultimate expressions of ethical good.Las Vegas HAS BEEN COMPARED TO Ibiza, St. Tropez and the Maldives. These cities may be all bright lights and big party places for the wealthiest folks in the world today, but they’re nothing compared to the spot where the ancient Roman aristocracy once played, the city of Baiae pronounced “Buy Buy” or "Buy uy" by the rapper "Deuce" from the Cross Movement, who obtained his Doctorate from Dallas Theological Seminary. Equating well-being with hedonic pleasure or happiness has a long history. Aristippus, a Greek philosopher from the fourth century B.C., taught that the goal of life is to experience the maximum amount of pleasure, and that happiness is the totality of one’s hedonic moments.“Flow" is the realest of them all. Because of the inherently enjoyable and beneficial qualities of flow experiences that are actually experienced recall these are not fantasies or journal notes that you keep trying to make a reality, these are activities that tend to promote optimal experiences.For more of my articles, check out https://www.medium.com/@snicolelevi
