Pleasure Scale

How can you distinguish high pleasure from low pleasure? As discussed in class, this is subjective, however, Aristotle believed it was objective. 

Personally, I think that the "pleasure scale," ranges from person to person. What makes one person happy, might make another person completely miserable, and vice versa. Like everything else, humans have a certain function that needs to be fulfilled, and that's happiness. However, some people fulfill it better than others. We spend our whole lives seeking happiness, and "living our life according to reason." According to some theorists, seeking happiness becomes more important than obtaining the actual happiness, contradicting the belief that we have to live a "happy life." What is the good life? What is the right choice? Why is it important for us to live in peace and harmony in a society? What is happiness? Only you can answer these questions, and everyone's answers differ. Are you really living a happy life? Some people say yes, while others say they've just successfully avoided the pain.
