The humanists of the Renaissance were concerned with a question that would you answer this same question ? What's the good life
for you ? We still ask ourselves today . "What is a good life?" they wondered . How Will you have a good life if you're rich, or if you're famous , or if you're able to do some good for someone , or if you have power , or if most of your days are simply happy ? Write down your thoughts on this complex question . What do you think has influenced the way you define the good life?
The idea that becoming rich defines whether we have a good life is not true; becomes often times the <u>happiness one gets from things they owned is short-lived.</u>
For many today including me, our definition of a <u>good life</u> has <em>changed </em>as a result of our experiences in life. Simply knowing you are loved and have loved ones makes many of us happy, and <u>there is this good feeling that sets in when you help others even in little ways.</u>
So in a sense, what we define as a good life is subjective (coming from within), and it<u> should be based on how we really feel on the inside, by asking; Do I feel good on the inside?</u>

When using if and can't they both have the similar "self doubt" aspect in them. Like "If I can do it..." and "I can"t do it." Both of these statements are basically questioning their self worth.
