Pleasure and Pain

Shouldn't the atheist have an equal obligation in a world of randomness. Where does pleasure come from? G. K. Chesterton?. . . When pain is over, the remembrance of it often becomes a pleasure. Jane Austen . . . The unexamined life is not worth living for man. Socrates . . . The greatest of pleasure of the joy of creative thought... Happiness differs from pleasure in the sense that pleasure comes from what is outside the self... Happiness comes from what is inside the self... Thus, I have little desire to know where pleasure comes from. I am already mentally preoccupied enjoying happiness as I endlessly continue to happily examine my own life and those of others!
