What does Life mean to you?

I watched a film the other day titled Life is wicked. It got me thinking about life and what people think of life. What does life mean to you? To some life is mean, bad, boring, and wicked, just like the titles of the movie I watched recently. Even some music lyrics have such titles. But to others it is totally different as they say life is fun. Life is good life is interesting.

To me life is exciting. Not that I’m unaware of the troubles and worries of life. Oh yes they are there but I have my reasons. I believe it is the lessons we learn from theses experiences that matter more than the experience. As the saying goes, it is the ride that matters not the destination.

We have only one life to live, so we have to live it to the full. Yes we have to do our best, get what we want and enjoy the life we have. Because no matter what we do we can get out of this place alive. We can run, we can hide, we can fly but we can’t get of life alive so we should do our best and make we live footprints on earth. We don’t have to make giant footprints but a try and live a mark.

If you concentrate on all the troubles, problems and worries of life, you won’t achieve what you are supposed to achieve on earth. You won’t do anything at all; rather you’ll be living in fear. At the end you’ll be full of regret because you didn’t do all you wanted to do. All your dreams will be unfulfilled; all your wishes not come to pass, just because you were too concerned about all the negatives in life. You were more concerned about people who have tried things and failed instead of looking at the successes.

It is only when you concentrate on bad things, worries, troubles, problems and failures that you get a wrong view of life. Life is good, it is fun, it is exciting, it should be lived to the fullest. Dennis Waitley said that the greatest regret in life will most likely come not from what you have done, but from what you have failed to do.

To cap up this report here’s what a friend sent me about life.
Life is an opportunity-use it
Life is a gift – accept it
Life is a game - Play it
Life is painful – endure it
Life is a problem – solve it
Life is a chance - take it
Life is a misery-know it
Life is a challenge –meet it
Life is a promise-fulfill it
Life is a journey-complete it

Oh’ yes I agree that life is journey, it is the most fantastic journey on earth. So enjoy yours. Don’t let anything get you down.
