    Today, I had a discussion with a man from India that was Muslim and was worried about dress codes - he was seeking guidance about women wearing provocative clothing in bars as bar maids. We decided that wearing these clothes makes you happy, and, God wants you to be happy. Wearing something that makes you happy is positive energy, and, will lead to good feelings spreading through society or God's kingdom.

    Of course, sometimes it makes others unhappy. This should be observed as bad energy, as, others might feel bad about it, leading to unhappiness, yes? This would mean we need to accept others, and take their rights for a given - that we must not impress our values on others, as, this will interfere with their happiness.

    So, who has the right to happy? We all have the freedom granted to us by God, and, will be able to do as we wish, which includes allowing others the right to be happy, but, who will be happy?

    If you were to allow others the right to be happy, you will find joy in that alone. Smirking to yourself as some woman walks past... yeah, floats your boat!
