Acknowledge that pain is a part of life. Smiling doesn’t mean you ignore the pain—it means you’ve accepted it and are determined to move forward.

Accept the Pain

Even in the darkest moments, small things can bring happiness. Whether it’s a favorite song or a kind word, hold on to those moments to lift your spirits.

Focus on Small Joys

Find humor in everyday situations. Laughter is a natural stress reliever that can help you endure the toughest times with a lighter heart.

Use Laughter as a Coping Mechanism

Focusing on what you’re grateful for, even when life is difficult, shifts your mindset. Gratitude helps you realize that there’s always something worth smiling about.

Practice Gratitude

Sharing your pain with trusted friends or family can ease the burden. Their support and love can bring a smile to your face, even in hard times.

Lean on Loved Ones

Pain often comes from dwelling on the past or fearing the future. Grounding yourself in the present helps you find peace and smile through challenges.

Stay Grounded in the Present

Smiling in pain is a symbol of resilience. It shows that you refuse to be defeated by life’s hardships, and that you have the strength to keep going.

Choose Resilience Over Defeat

Pain often brings growth and wisdom. Reflect on how challenges are shaping you into a stronger person and smile at the progress you’re making.

Find Meaning in the Struggle

Sometimes, simply smiling, even when you don’t feel like it, can trick your brain into feeling happier. Over time, it can genuinely improve your mood.

Fake It Till You Make It

Channel your pain into something meaningful, whether it’s art, writing, or helping others. Purpose gives you strength to smile despite the hurt.

Turn Pain Into Purpose

No matter how deep the pain, it’s not forever. Reminding yourself that better days will come can help you smile with hope.

The Art of Smiling Through Pain: Finding Strength in Difficult Moments

Aristotle starts Nicomachean Ethics by trying to find the best way to live. To do this, you need to figure out what the best good or end is. This is the thing that people want for its own sake, not for anything else. He goes off topic to say that Nicomachean Ethics will be a work of political science, which is the study of how to make cities better places to live. He also says that this book will not tell the whole truth but will indicate the truth roughly and in broad strokes.

The Search for the Highest Good

Most people think that happiness is the most important thing, but they don't all agree on what happiness is. So, to understand what the greatest good is, you have to understand what a person is for. Aristotle says that this human role is activity of the soul in accordance with reason or more specifically with morality.

Understanding Happiness

There are good ways to think and good ways to act. Virtues aren't something we're born with; we learn them through habits. Since deeds make up a person's character, it's important to find the right ways to act that lead to good character, which means doing things that make sense.

The Development of Virtue

For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them,

Too much or too little of something can be bad for your health, just like too much or too little exercise can hurt your strength. The goal is to find the middle ground. Having the right feelings at the right times about the right things toward the right people for the right reason and in the right way is part of this mean, or intermediate state. In other words, being good isn't just about doing the right thing; it's also about doing the right thing while in the right state.

The Golden Mean

Virtues start with a number of things. For example, you have to think about and decide on the good goal you want to reach. Aristotle talks at length about different kinds of good character and the extremes between which each is the mean. For example,Bravery is the state between being bold and being afraid.Temperance is a balanced taste for good things.A person who is kind avoids both being careless and not being kind.

Types of Virtues

Magnificence is spending big money on big things, like palaces for the gods. Magnanimity is both being worthy of great rewards and knowing you are worthy of them. A mild person only gets angry at the right times and in the right amounts. Someone who is nice is neither ingratiating nor cantankerous.

Aristotle also talks about fairness, which is what makes and keeps people happy in a political group. Because justice looks out for the good of both the person and the group, it can be seen as a kind of summary of all the values.

The Role of Justice

Aristotle also talks about what he calls virtues of thought. These are states of mind that lead the soul toward the truth. Prudence is one of the most important virtues. It is the ability to think carefully about what makes for a good life. In other words, it is the ability to think rightly about virtue both in general and in specific cases.

Virtues of Thought

Aristotle talks at length about incontinence, or not being able to control yourself, which is one of the main things that gets in the way of being good. People who don't have self-control know that it's wrong to chase a certain pleasure, and they even think about it and decide that it is wrong, but they still do it anyway. The habitual person can be taught to act in a good way, but the intemperate person is harder to change because he thinks it's okay to do what he does wrong.

Incontinence and Self-Control

Aristotle talks a lot about friendship because it has a lot to do with being good. Friendship is also important to political science because it keeps towns together. The best friendships are between people who are good in the same ways. These friends want good things for each other because it's good for their friend, not because it's good for them or gives them happiness. True friendship helps people grow in good ways. This is especially true when friends live together and share both happiness and sadness.

The Importance of Friendship

Aristotle's main point is that the highest human virtue is understanding, so the best way to be happy is to learn or think about philosophical ideas. But even though the contemplative life is the most desired, the political life must be followed for the good of society. He says that most people don't like being good and that arguing with them won't change their ways. This is why we need laws to teach people good habits when they're young and make them a part of their lives.

The Highest Human Virtue

Because of this, it is necessary for anybody who cares about the welfare of others and of society as a whole to educate themselves on legal and political structures, topics that Aristotle would discuss in another part of his work.

Summary of the Nicomachian Ethics by Aristotle

Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" is considered to be one of the most important treatises on ethics ever written. In an incredibly detailed study of virtue and vice in man, Aristotle examines one of the most central themes to man, the nature of goodness itself. In Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics," he asserts that virtue is essential to happiness and that man must live in accordance with the "doctrine of the mean" (the balance between excess and deficiency) to achieve such happiness.

Topics Explained

Emma Bovary is deeply influenced by romantic novels, leading her to expect a passionate and idealized life, which leaves her dissatisfied with the mundane reality of marriage. 	“She wanted both to die and to live in Paris.”

The Illusion of Romance

Emma frequently escapes reality through her daydreams, adultery, and material indulgence, which ultimately leads to her downfall. 	“Everything, even herself, was unbearable to her.”

The Dangers of Escapism

She quickly becomes bored with her marriage to Charles Bovary, a simple country doctor, whom she perceives as dull and uninspiring. 	“Marriage, she thought, should be the beginning of life, but it was the end.”

Emma’s Disillusionment with Marriage

Emma’s pursuit of idealized love and excitement creates a chasm between her fantasies and her actual experiences, causing constant dissatisfaction. 	“What would happen to all that future? What had become of all those dreams?”

The Impact of Unrealistic Expectation

Emma’s worldview is shaped by the romantic novels she reads, which distort her expectations of love and lead her to make disastrous choices. 	“She confused the love of luxury with the desire for happiness.”

The Influence of Literature on Reality

Emma’s materialistic desires push her and her family into severe financial debt, showcasing the perils of living beyond one’s means in pursuit of status. 	“She owed money everywhere.”

Materialism & Debt

Class divisions are explored as Emma aspires to a higher social standing than her humble origins and current status afford, fueling her dissatisfaction. 	“Her desires became more urgent, her dreams more impassioned.”

The Role of Social Class

Emma is obsessed with outward appearances, and much of her behavior is driven by the desire to appear sophisticated and affluent, even if it leads to deception. 	“Her whole life was a continual lie.”

The Importance of Appearences

Flaubert critiques the values of the bourgeoisie, highlighting their materialism, shallowness, and hypocrisy through the lives of Emma and the people around her. 	“The world belonged to the mediocrities.”

The Critique of Bourgeois Society

Emma’s inability to reconcile her fantasies with reality, her selfishness, and her refusal to take responsibility for her actions lead to her tragic demise. 	“She had been happy and now she wasn’t. That was all.”

The Tragic Flaws of Emma Bovary

Emma’s affairs do not bring her the passion or fulfillment she desires but instead lead to greater disillusionment, guilt, and social ruin. 	“Passion seemed to her something vague, not an impulse of the heart.”

The Consequences of Adultery

Despite her numerous relationships and affairs, Emma remains emotionally isolated, unable to connect with others in a meaningful way. 	“She was the lover of every novel, the heroine of every play.”

Emotional Isolation in Relationships

The novel constantly juxtaposes Emma’s lofty dreams with the harsh realities of her provincial life, emphasizing the gap between desire and reality. 	“In her soul she was waiting for something to happen.”

The Contrast Between Dream & Reality

Flaubert’s precise, detailed, and unsentimental style marks a significant shift towards literary realism, depicting life without idealization. 	“Madame Bovary, c’est moi.”

The Use of Realism in Literature

Emma’s tragic fate is partly due to societal pressures and partly due to her own choices, raising questions about the extent of her agency in shaping her destiny. 	“She could see herself in her future life as in a picture painted on the wall.”

The Themes of Fate & Free Will

1.	Illusion of Romance: Emma’s unrealistic expectations fuel her dissatisfaction.	2.	Dangers of Escapism: Her detachment from reality leads to ruin.	3.	Disillusionment with Marriage: Emma is unfulfilled by her husband and life.	4.	Unrealistic Expectations: The gap between dreams and reality devastates her.	5.	Influence of Literature: Romantic novels distort her view of life.	6.	Materialism and Debt: Her desire for luxury leads to financial disaster.	7.	Social Class: Class aspirations fuel her frustrations.	8.	Appearances: Emma obsesses over how others perceive her.

9.	Bourgeois Critique: Flaubert critiques middle-class values.	10.	Tragic Flaws: Emma’s selfishness and fantasies lead to her downfall.	11.	Adultery’s Consequences: Affairs bring no satisfaction, only ruin.	12.	Emotional Isolation: Emma fails to connect meaningfully with anyone.	13.	Dream vs. Reality: Her lofty dreams clash with her dull reality.	14.	Religion’s Role: The church offers no solace or meaning.	15.	Literary Realism: Flaubert’s style brings harsh reality to the forefront.	16.	Fate and Free Will: Emma’s downfall questions her control over her fate.

A tragic tale of desire, illusion, and disillusionment in the pursuit of an idealized life.

This exquisite novel tells the story of one of the most compelling heroines in modern literature--Emma Bovary. "Madame Bovary has a perfection that not only stamps it, but that makes it stand almost alone; it holds itself with such a supreme unapproachable assurance as both excites and defies judgement." - Henry James Unhappily married to a devoted, clumsy provincial doctor, Emma revolts against the ordinariness of her life by pursuing voluptuous dreams of ecstasy and love. But her sensuous and sentimental desires lead her only to suffering corruption and downfall. A brilliant psychological portrait, Madame Bovary searingly depicts the human mind in search of transcendence. Who is Madame Bovary? Flaubert's answer to this question was superb: "Madame Bovary, c'est moi." Acclaimed as a masterpiece upon its publication in 1857, the work catapulted Flaubert to the ranks of the world's greatest novelists. This volume, with its fine translation by Lowell Bair, a perceptive introduction by Leo Bersani, and a complete supplement of essays and critical comments, is the indispensable Madame Bovary.

Don’t Be Fooled: RECOGNIZE EVIL PEOPLE | 5 SIGNS | ISLAM

Criticism puts others on the defensive and damages relationships. People rarely respond well to being told they are wrong, so instead of condemning, focus on understanding their perspective and addressing the issue constructively.

1. Avoid Criticizing, Condemning, or Complaining

"Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain—and most fools do."

People crave appreciation and recognition. A simple act of acknowledging someone’s effort or talent can strengthen bonds and open up avenues for influence. Be genuine with your praise, as insincerity can be easily detected.

2. Give Honest and Sincere Appreciation

The secret to influencing others lies in aligning their desires with yours. Instead of pushing your agenda, tap into what they want and show how helping you will help them achieve their own goals.

3. Arouse in Others an Eager Want

People are more likely to respond positively to you when they feel that you genuinely care about them. Show interest in their lives, hobbies, and concerns. This builds trust and rapport, making your interactions more meaningful.

4. Become Genuinely Interested in Other People

A smile is a simple yet powerful tool for making a good impression. It conveys warmth, positivity, and openness, and can immediately set a friendly tone for your interactions. A smile invites others to feel comfortable around you.

5. Smile

A person’s name is the sweetest sound to them. By remembering and using people’s names in conversation, you show respect and attentiveness, which makes others feel valued and recognized.

6. Remember and Use People’s Names

Listening is a fundamental component of effective communication. When you listen attentively, you give people the feeling of importance. Let others talk about themselves and their experiences; it builds trust and makes them more receptive to your ideas.

7. Be a Good Listener

"Listening is one of the highest compliments we can pay anyone."

Conversations flow more naturally when you steer them toward topics that interest the other person. By focusing on what excites them, you keep them engaged and foster a positive connection.

8. Talk in Terms of the Other Person’s Interests

One of the most powerful principles in human relations is to make people feel valued. Show others that their contributions and opinions matter. This boosts their self-esteem and encourages them to engage more fully with you.

9. Make the Other Person Feel Important

Arguments are rarely productive and often leave both parties feeling worse. Instead of arguing, seek to understand the other person’s viewpoint and find common ground. This prevents conflicts and helps maintain positive relationships.

10. Avoid Arguments

Even when you disagree, show respect for the other person’s opinions. By validating their perspective, you keep the conversation respectful and open, which makes them more willing to listen to your side of the story.

11. Respect Others’ Opinions

Admitting mistakes is a sign of strength, not weakness. When you acknowledge your errors, you disarm criticism and foster an environment of honesty and humility. It encourages others to be more forgiving and cooperative.

12. Admit When You Are Wrong

People are more likely to support a decision or course of action when they believe it was their idea. Encourage others to contribute to discussions and give them ownership over ideas. This builds commitment and buy-in.

13. Let Others Feel the Idea Is Theirs

When asking someone for something, appeal to their sense of integrity, honor, or duty. People are more likely to respond positively when they believe they are acting in accordance with their higher values or beliefs.

14. Appeal to Nobler Motives

Presenting ideas with enthusiasm and energy captures attention and makes them memorable. Use stories, analogies, and vivid examples to dramatize your point. This adds impact and makes your ideas more persuasive.

15. Dramatize Your Ideas

"Get ready to unlock the timeless secrets to mastering human relationships and becoming a magnet for trust and influence."

How To Win Friends and Influence People

So many songs, poems and expressions shine light on love, but what does it mean to individuals?I went on a journey to ask as many people as possible,what does love mean?how do you show love?how do you feel loved?Below are some of the findings thus far.

What Is Love?

Most people express their love in this way.Exciting, igniting and full of passion.Fire is the shortest example of life. For it to burn, it must consume what gives it life. A life taken for a life given.Fire provides warmth but at the slightest absence of attention, one can lose control of a flame that could burn them to their bones.Treat this love with care and learn to dump a bucket of water over a fire you’ve lost control over.

The Love Of fire

Not many compare love to water, but I think it’s one of the most important types of love.Shapeshifting, everlasting and full of nourishment.Water the things and people you love, daily… not just on holidays. Anytime is a time for love. And water gives without expecting anything in return, in my opinion, an important part of this love.

Love Of Water

For the moments that wiz by.A polite gesture or laughter with a stranger. A moment that passes by before you realize it’s gone.Don’t be afraid to love “pass-by” moments. Be present in the moment and be kind to those you pass by. This kind of love can lift a strangers day or even save a life.

Love Of Wind

The base, where it all starts and ends.The love of your family and closest friends.It’s always there, but don’t take it for granted as if you don’t care for your land, it goes to waste. Water your land, care for it and protect it.

Love Of Earth

The love that most think of last but, I feel should take priority over all.Love is easier to give and receive when you value who you are. When insecurities and values are present, love comes naturally, even in hard times.You’ve already made it… you are worthy, enjoy life, explore yourself and learn to love yourself.Love is contagious.

Love Of Self

After asking this question to so many people, I realize we don’t talk about love enough.We assume we all see, give and receive love the same way. But we don’t.Ask your partner, family and friends this question, it will give you lots to think about. Learn to express and talk about love if you want to be loved. Love has 0 expectations and 0 assumptions. Love gives, lifts and empowers but it doesn’t owe anyone anything.To read the poem I wrote about the elements of Love <a href="https://thinkofitthisway.com/the-elements-of-love">click here</a>
