I don't understand the irony to be found in your statements. Perhaps it is best for it to remain unexplained.
Do you find beauty in existence?
Do you love your fellow man?
I guess these questions are really meant to be rhetorical and not designed to be answered.
As for me, I must admit my guilt of answering both questions in the affirmative. I don't seem to require much more than that to remain spiritually balanced, optimistic, and reasonably happy. I'm sure that I would be a great deal happier were I to have my health. However, I am truly grateful for what I do have.
I would only add that I always try to use all of what God gives me to work with.
