This is Who I am
Ok. Here is something you all should know about me.
I am NOT an average person. No, I am not. I am not just another person, trying to be 'just happy'. No, please get yourself clear about it. I repeat. I do NOT claim to be an average person, who is happy being imperfect and full of shortcomings. No, I am not happy with that. And for that matter, making myself happy is NOT what I live for.
This is the most commong thing I hear and read about people. They say "I am an ordinary person, I just want to lead a simple life, I am not perfect, I want to be happy, etc etc".
I know I am repeating. But lets get this very very clear. This is NOT how I think. I think: I am a person, yes, with finite capacities in most dimensions, but, I DO WANT to be perfect. Yes, I want to be a great person. I want to excel in those uniquely human faculties, such as morality, honesty, kindness and curiosity. I DONT want to be just happy. Because that is SUCH a vague and meaningless statement. If I say I want to be happy, it does not really mean anything specific. Surely, one can be happy by being hurtful to others feelings. And please dont lecture me by Bullshiting that, harming others cant make one happy. Because it is wrong. There are people, they can be very happy, even when they are being unjust, cruel and dishonest. I don't like it, same as you do not, bu that's just fact. Let's accept it and work from there.
Having said this, I have many sub-goals in life. To be perfect is not a matter of joke. It 'may not' be even possible, specially when the concept of perfect is not clearly defined. But here comes the other important thing I want to talk about today. It is, I think, one should dream BIG. I mean really really BIG. A dream that sounds perfectly possible at the very first glance, is a shame for a dream. Nope I do NOT agree with you that, dreams should be realistic. ABSOLUTELY NOT. Dream by definition has to be 'seemingly' impossible. That's exactly why they are called dreams. I DO NOT understand why people ignore this simple meaning of a dream.
(To Be Continued.)

Unspecified
The truth that can't be touched could be an illusion as well.
There is a general lack of specification in nature. Everything kind of extends to a bit rather than being exact and point like. Nature avoid sharp boundaries and things gradually fall into each other and merge, rather than transforming abruptly. There is a general tendency to resist change of any kind.

Core
Never hurt anyone. Hurt creates more hurt.
Do not break heart. In my very limited knowledge, I am not sure about almost anything. But I still know, breaking heart is seriously wrong.
Never do injustice. If justice seems unclear, rather sacrifice your own interest to others, to be on the safe side.
Do not fall into the trap of greed. Display gratitude, not need for more.
Accept, don't frustrate. Act, don't complain.
Forgive everyone. Unconditionally.
Raise your moral standard. Everyday, every moment. Raise self respect.
Do not display weakness. Stand up. Protect your dignity.
Uphold Freedom. Do not compromize freedom for comfort. Freedom is the best comfort.

Core
I can not expect justice or fairness from anyone or anything. The ability to understand what is fair and what is not is there, only to judge my own actions.
The reason for this is, there is actually no guarantee in nature, that there will be any kind of justice. So I can't expect that. And the reason why it is applicable for my actions, is, it is necessary for my own happiness. Nature does not have a system of justice in place, but I do internally.
This has tremendous consequences on my life. It means, I need to give priority to others interests over mine and can not expect that from others. It means, I can be judged and punished for my wrong doings, but can not expect that for other's actions. No matter how much I am hurt, I must always be in love. I must transcend the loop of expectation and detach my mechanism of happiness compeletely from the effects of others actions. I have to create a very thick crust around me; which will shield me from the hurts caused by others and stop interfering with my internal world. I need to create a heaven of peace, justice, beauty and kindness within that crust, where I truly live and maintain purity from the outside world forever. This is the core philosophy of my life.

The Search
The best answer to a question, generally invalidates the question, instead of giving a direct answer.
The best way to happiness is most likely an effort to remove all the hopes and longings, instead of trying to figure out how to achieve those.
This universe is a lot about finding how our everyday perception is wrong and incomplete. We keep peeling the reality and the reality keeps shrinking.
The search for ultimate reality may well end up in an absolute void, something so void, we can't even imagine.
