A toothbrush handle that "fits comfortably in hand, providing a good, firm grip" (Heskett 27) contributes to making a particular type of such instrument seem likable to individuals. A toothbrush's shape can make it more effective, thus making a person feel like the tool is part of their lives, fitting perfectly into their hands and assisting them in washing their teeth with great accuracy.
Seeing the wide range of toothbrushes presently existing on the market, it is obvious that toothbrush design are not only meant to provide customers with efficacy in washing their teeth, as the tools are also designed so as for them to appeal to customers before they actually decide to buy them. In spite of this, most toothbrush designers focused on the tool's utility, rather than on its design, since it is perfectly normal for...
Ornamental patterns can always seem attracting, often influencing the individual in choosing beauty over function. Even with that, it is likely that most people will concentrate on a tool's utility as they realize that beauty cannot always be associated with function.
Consequent to using a toothbrush for several times, people will feel that the respective instrument is part of their lives, and they will identify with its shape and utility.

On the other hand, people who are not desperate mull over the meaning of life.
strong issue with the ideas of David Benatar and James Lenman (1997), which I regard as simply absurd, or more likely a case of academics striking a pose and writing in a sarcastic and cynical manner in hopes of getting a rise out of their readers. If the latter is true, they certainly succeeded with me, since I cannot accept the notion that non-existence is always preferable to existence

Tolstoy (Rowlands) claims that science is unable to provide assistance in this regard. While it can describe what life is, it is incapable of describing its meaning. It is able to explain the things in this world and
.....deathbed, Morrie reflects on his life, and relays several messages about the meaning or purpose of life. Ironically, one of the main messages of the story is that life does not necessarily have a greater or cosmic meaning. Meaning is found in what is immediately before us, in the day-to-day existence and especially in relationships with others. Life's meaning is found in accepting life for what it is rather than
Life Philosophers much older and wiser than I have wrestled with the thorny question of life's meaning, and risen from the mat covered with scratches and welts, but still without answers. The questions regarding life's meaning plague mankind at times. During times of prosperity and success, culture and man's conscious is understandably silent on the issue. There is no reason to struggle with the weighty matters of my purpose on
