to make someone happy, unconditionally happy, it would be service. While not drinking alcohol, smoking, or doing drugs are very important, service is something that does not just help oneself but also another person. It’s like a double whammy! Large acts of service can sounds hectic, overly ambitious, even scary, but those scary things are not the only possible size of service. ur Lord and Savior, Christ the Redeemer, used active love to help those around him and to teach of the works of his…

While this is only one interpretation of the soliloquy, the copious allusions to the common cruelties of day-to-day life combined with the repetition of the allusions to death provide strong textual evidence of its validity. However, to…
